The basic decorations often centre on patterns of interlacing arabesques and spiral scrolls. It is a challenging art that requires utmost precision and patience.

Inspired by the reference 5180 debuted a year prior, the present watch pays tribute to the rare handcrafts that are painstakingly upheld by the manufacture.
