Released as a successor of the reference 5074, the 5374 was introduced in Basel World 2016 while inheriting the previous merits of the outstanding movement. The minute repeater features the cathedral gongs, which extends twice the length as compared to regular gongs, producing a deeper, richer sound. The dial is crafted in black enamel, a rather uncommon dial choice from the manufacturer. Compared to the 5074, the 5374 remains at 42 mm, however features a redesigned case which looks slimmer.

The present example is preserved in like new condition, and the repeater strikes in excellent clarity and serenity.
