The Genghis Khan model incorporates some of the most important and complex features in horology, including carillon, tourbillon, Westminister minute repeater and Jaquemarts, and was the first ever model to house all the aforementioned complications. Likely the most eye-catching feature, the visible one-minute tourbillon is integrated into the pitch-black onyx dial. The tourbillon bridge is the same shape as the tourbillon bridge that James Pellaton created for Ulysse Nardin at the beginning of the twentieth century. Intriguingly, the Westminister minute repeater of the present watch contains four gongs, each with a different tone (Mi-Do-Re-Sol). When the repeater function is triggered, the hour sound is Sol and the minute sound is Mi. All four gongs sound in three different sequences for the quarters. Further featuring the complexity called Jaquemarts, the meticulously hand-crafted figures illustrated on the dial are invigorated with the beautiful chiming sound of the Westminister minute repeater. The “Genghis Khan” model was first introduced in 2002 under the administration of Rolf Schnyder who proudly presented the manufacturer's pinnacle in complexity – a horological artwork which is also the world's first wristwatch to feature a Westminster minute repeater, Jaquemarts and tourbillon. The watch is visually as impressive as it is functionally. Not only is the watch elegantly cased in 18K pink gold, the case and dial are further adorned with dazzling diamonds, distinguishing it from the earlier non-bejeweled examples. Exceptionally rare and beautiful, this is the first time that the present bejeweled Genghis Khan model is offered at auction.
