The present lot beautifully embodies the perfect harmony between artistry and technical mastery. The dial is exquisitely embellished with a hand-engraved floral and leaf scroll motif, from which the complications appear to gracefully emerge. Its well-balanced configuration elegantly accommodates the power reserve at 10 o’clock, featuring open-worked detailing that offers a captivating glimpse into the moving wheels and mechanisms driving the indication. The moon-phase display is positioned at 2 o’clock, complemented by a date indication at 6 o’clock.
The reverse is equally impressive, showcasing intricate hand-engraved decoration that reflects a meticulous attention to detail throughout. A particularly charming and subtle feature lies in the use of yellow gold for the movement and dial components, harmoniously blending with the sophisticated pink gold case that houses them.
Offered in beautiful condition, this conversation-worthy timepiece is a rare union of craftsmanship and elegance, one that would make a distinguished addition to any discerning collection.
