Incoming : my first Minute Repeater

May 26, 2019,00:35 AM
 

And I couldn't be more happier. Limited edition of 500 watches released in 1994 if I'm not mistaken. The repeater slide is almost invisible and only the regulating organ visible from the dial side with its inscription reveal the complexity of this beautifully executed minute repeater. The chiming is warm and clear. The movement was designed in-house by watchmaker Eric Coudray and delivers remarkably clear sound, a true achievement given the limitations imposed by the case size and shape. Now I only have to control myself not to pull the slide every so many minutes.

One more beauty in your stable! And that series of rose gold LE 500 pcs (tourbillon, perpetual calendar, chronograph and yours) were total classy and understated. The choice of a gentleman πŸ‘ bravo Maltie!

Thank you

I have been looking at the Tourbillon too. A lovely piece indeed.

Tourbillon is a superb choice as well
