Summary

The retrograde seconds display divides time into two. Its large hand counts off 30 seconds over a graduated arc of a circle, before returning instantly to its starting point to measure the 30 following seconds. This model also displays a Large Date function appearing through a double window at 12 o’clock.

Mechanical self-winding movement visible through the transparent case-back. 41 mm red gold case, dial with “vieux panier” guilloché motif, hand-sewn alligator leather strap. Limited, numbered edition of 178.
