The hand guilloché dial requires up to 700 different operations and 2 full days to complete, the tear drop lugs have been individually forged, heat treated, hand polished and individually soldered onto the watch case in a way which makes the soldering line invisible to the naked eye. The moon disc is also made by hand, it is crafted from mirror polished blued steel, in which the stars are manually inlaid in gold and two solid 18 karat gold, mirror polished moons are fitted. The movement powering this masterpiece is a superbly finished extra slim automatic caliber with a 21k yellow gold guilloche rotor. The present Reference 3 also features a power reserve indicator stylishly placed beneath the moonphase display. The present lot offers immense value to the connoisseur with its enticing looks, artistry, perfectly legible calendar functions and ultimate rarity. Read More
