Sylvian Pinaud Monopoussoir Chronograph
May 19, 2020,13:27 PM
Hello everyone!
I want to introduce you the young French watchmaker, Sylvian Pinaud, who recently settled in Switzerland in order to begin his career as an independent watchmaker.
Last year, he presented his first watch, a single-button chronograph based on the ETA 6497, but I have to say that only the gear train and escapement are left from the original mechanism. While Pino himself makes main plate, bridges, balance, a chronograph module.
Most of the details of this watch are made by hand using traditional tools and machines (lathe, saw, files and other hand tools).
The manual winding movement has a 45-hour power reserve and a traditional chronograph mechanism. The time is displayed on the dial at 12 o’clock, while on the small subdials, you can find the seconds (at 9 o’clock) and the minutes counter (at 3 o’clock).
The watch case in the photographs is made of titanium (also available in 18K red gold) and has a diameter of 42 mm and a height of 12.5 mm.
In the future, Pinaud expects to develop this mechanism in the future, perhaps a date or a power reserve indicator will be added.
Case and buckle in Titanium: 78 000 Chf excluding VAT
Case and buckle in 18K Gold: 88 000 Chf excluding VAT
Share your thoughts, in my opinion this watch is worth attention.
