Description

In a spirit very close to the original, this iconic watch reinterprets a model launched in 1921 specifically designed for the American market during the Roaring Twenties. Its crown, boldly placed between 1 and 2 o’clock, and its diagonal reading of the time without needing to turn the wrist give it an exquisite, creative character. The dial features a railway dial-train and black-painted Arabic numerals, as well as a small seconds between 3 and 4 o’clock. Its manual-winding movement offers a power reserve of nearly 3 days.
