Master Control Chronometre Date
Designed, made and assembled in our Manufacture

Each Master Control Chronometre is distinguished by the High-Precision Guarantee (HPG), a signature certification that subjects every timepiece to rigorous testing under real-life conditions. Over three days, the timepiece is exposed to variations in wrist positions, altitude, temperature and shocks. The label also ensures that each calibre component receives a range of eight decorative techniques: circular graining, Côtes de Genève, circular smoothing, burnishing, polished screw-heads, linear smoothing, sunk rubies, and bevelling.

Inspired by the heritage of the Futurematic, the blue-grey gradient dial finds its match in the cool lustre of the steel case. The design achieves a singular, unified look through the integrated bracelet, where alternating polished and satin-brushed links extend the architectural details of the case across the entire wrist.
