Aquanaut Luce Minute Repeater Rose Gold - Rainbow / Baguette

In Context

At 38.8 mm it sits just under the modern norm — the band that suits the widest spread of wrists. At 10.1 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.

The movement winds itself from the motion of your wrist. 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.

5260/355R-001 stands on its own in this catalogue — no other reference here shares its base number. It pairs a diamonds dial with a rose gold case. Beyond the time it carries a minute repeater.
