A Masterpiece. A “Grande Sonnerie” openface with tourbillon, powers reserve and Westminster Chime repeating mechanism. The watch is further embellished with baguette cut diamonds.
The Westminster chime is the most complicated of all striking mechanisms. It automatically strikes the quarters by adding them up. At each full hour, it strikes first the four quarter hours and then the hours.
