Description

With a case crafted from 18kt red gold, this watch has a sapphire crystal over the fully skeletonized movement. The caseback is also sapphire crystal and both sides have been coated with an anti-glare treatment. The movement is pyramid shaped and displays two power reserve indicators at the 10 and 2 o’clock positions. In the center, the hours and minutes are displayed on a circular dial frame. Behind that is a second dial frame that displays the small seconds. The caliber powering this watch is the A&S 1615 hand-wound movement.

The movement can be viewed through the sapphire crystal display back. This is an in house movement that shows examples of hand-chamfered bridges, satin finishes, circular graining, blued screws and more. This movement has a power reserve of 90 hours and is presented on a hand-stitched alligator leather strap. It is water resistant to 30 meters.

The skeletonised calibre A&S1615 follows the original regulators from the brand with its component positioning and detailed 3D visual appeal. Movement parts and indications are built on three levels, with the subsidiary seconds dial on the bottom, the hour indications on a sapphire crystal disc in the middle level, and a silver top ring for the minute’s indication. While the movement is extremely thin – at just 4.4 mm – the multiple levels bring amazing depth and detail to the timepiece. To further enhance the balance and symmetry of the Time Pyramid, the crown is positioned at six o’clock.

The gear train runs vertically in a linear format connecting the two barrels at six o’clock to the balance wheel at twelve o’clock and endowing the movement with its pyramidal structure. The bridges are designed so that all the wheels, the two mainspring barrels, the escapement and balance wheel are all visible from the dial side.
