Millenary Hand-wound White Gold / Mother of Pearl

In Context

At 39.5 mm it sits just under the modern norm — the band that suits the widest spread of wrists. At 9.8 mm thick it is about average for a modern wristwatch. The case back is open, so the movement is visible without taking the watch apart, 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. 54 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.

77247BC.ZZ.A813CR.01 has a white mother of pearl dial and is fitted a beige alligator strap is one of 2 executions of the 77247BC.ZZ.A813CR.01 base reference. Underneath they are the same watch; what separates this one is a white dial and a white gold case.
