Museum Collection Beijing Winter Olympics 2022 Sedna Gold / Enamel

In Context

At 39 mm it sits just under the modern norm — the band that suits the widest spread of wrists. 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 30 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. 72 hours of reserve puts it well past a weekend — several days off the wrist and it is still going. At 25,200 vph the seconds hand advances 7 times a second.

522.52.39.21.04.001 stands on its own in this catalogue — no other reference here shares its base number. It pairs a white gloss dial with a sedna gold case. Introduced in 2022.

Hand-wound movement with small seconds at 6:00. Finished for use in precious metal cases.
