The measure of a life
Two hundred and eleven hours of assembly. One movement, regulated by hand until it loses less than a second a day.
The movement
Two hundred and eleven parts, turning as one
An in-house automatic calibre beats at 28,800 vibrations an hour. The bridges are chamfered and polished where no owner will ever look, because the watchmaker will.

Water resistance
Sealed against the deep, worn to dinner
A screw-down crown and a triple gasket hold the case to one hundred metres. It will outlast the occasion, and most likely the owner. That is rather the point.
