CODE 11.59 Grande Sonnerie Carillon Supersonnerie White Gold / Blue

In Context

At 41 mm it is sized to the current mainstream: 40 mm is the median across every watch measured in this catalogue. At 13.5 mm it is a tall case, and it will catch on a cuff. The case back is closed, so the movement stays out of sight, and the sapphire crystal will resist everything short of deliberate abuse. Rated to 20 m, it is protected against rain and splashes and nothing beyond that.

The movement is hand-wound, so winding it becomes part of the day rather than something the watch does for you. 48 hours of reserve is enough to set it down on Friday evening and find it still running on Monday. At 21,600 vph the seconds hand advances 6 times a second, the slower and more audible rate of an older design.

26397BC.OO.D324VE.01 stands on its own in this catalogue — no other reference here shares its base number. It pairs a blue guilloche dial with a white gold case. It was a limited edition. Introduced in 2022.

Hand-wound movement with grande & petite sonnerie, and minute repeater. Total of 498 parts including 53 jewels. [placeholder for watches using the 2956 without its small seconds function]
