Complementing this exquisite case is a refined alligator leather strap, harmonizing seamlessly with the watch's opulent aesthetic. The grained white textured dial adds an element of texture and depth, enriching the watch's visual allure.
Elegantly designed, this masterpiece features a retrograde date indicator meticulously placed along the bottom rim of the dial. This intricate complication engages the wearer as the date hand gracefully arcs and resets, offering a captivating visual representation of time's passage. Enhancing the dial's balance is a small seconds sub-dial positioned at the 6 o'clock mark, providing a glimpse into the mesmerizing rhythm of seconds. Innovating its functionality, the watch proudly presents a dual time-zone sub-dial indicator at the 12 o'clock position, catering to global explorers and individuals attuned to multiple time zones. The day/night indicator for the primary time-zone is gracefully displayed via a sub-dial at the center of the small seconds sub-dial at 6 o'clock, allowing swift differentiation between daytime and nighttime hours. Additionally, a smaller sub-dial to the right of the dual time-zone indicator indicates the day/night progression for the secondary time-zone, catering to the needs of contemporary travelers. At the heart of this exceptional timepiece beats the Calibre PF317, a self-winding movement that enables the reading of two time indications, each independently adjustable to the minute. The movement's two series-coupled barrels ensure a remarkable 50-hour power reserve, characterized by exceptional regularity. The pendulum oscillates at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour, signifying the movement's precision. Comprising 316 meticulously crafted components, this sophisticated calibre adheres to the highest standards of Haute Horlogerie. The bridges and plate are adorned with exquisite angled, beaded, and Côtes-de-Genève decoration, attesting to the movement's craftsmanship. The oscillating weight, crafted from 22 carat gold, is delicately engraved and stamped with the initials "PF," a testament to its artistry. Beyond its functional complexity, the watch performs an orchestra of timekeeping functions, encompassing hours, minutes, small seconds, date, and moon phase, offering a comprehensive experience for the discerning wearer.
