Born from the spirit of travel, a perpetual calendar this slim usually hides inside a dress watch, yet here it lives in a sports watch built for the marina. Made for the collector who already owns the steel icons and is ready for the grown up chapter, where serious Geneva watchmaking meets weekend ease. Picture Phileas Fogg racing around the world in eighty days, only this time he never once has to stop and fix the date.
Presents itself in mint condition with little to no signs of wear. Set against a silver-toned lacquered sunburst dial, three snailed counters and applied 18K gold markers with blue-glowing Super-LumiNova catch the light, while two gold moons drift across a starry sky at six oтАЩclock. Framed by a notched bezel, the 41.5mm rose gold case pairs vertical satin brushing with mirror-polished edges at just 8.1mm thin. Shaped to reveal the Maltese cross, the rose gold bracelet flows into a triple folding clasp engraved with the same emblem. Turned over, the sapphire caseback shows a 22K gold rotor carved like a compass rose.
Functions include hours, minutes, day, date, month, leap year, moon phase, and perpetual calendar. Powered by the self winding Calibre 1120 QP/1 with the Hallmark of Geneva, it runs about 40 hours, resists magnetism, and is water resistant to 50 meters. Four recessed case correctors adjust each display with the included stylus, while quick-change attachments enable instant strap swaps. To set it after a long rest, fully wind the crown at three oтАЩclock, pull it out, and move the hands to around 6:30. Use the correctors for month and leap year (top left), date set to yesterday (top right), day (bottom left), and moon phase (bottom right), then turn the hands forward past midnight and set the time.
Comes as a complete set, double-boxed with warranty card, hang tag, corrector stylus, and blue alligator strap.
Part of a family first created in 1996 for an active life on the move, it pairs one of fine watchmakingтАЩs grandest complications with real everyday ease. Set it once and it stays correct until 2100, further into the future than the Jetsons ever planned. Let it catch the sunset on your wrist at your next dinner abroad, unless another collector gets there first.
