Métiers d'Art Les Univers Infinis Angel

In Context

At 40 mm it is sized to the current mainstream: 40 mm is the median across every watch measured in this catalogue. At 8.9 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 30 m, it is protected against rain and splashes and nothing beyond that.

The movement winds itself from the motion of your wrist. 40 hours of reserve carries it overnight, but not through a weekend in a drawer. At 28,800 vph the seconds hand advances 8 times a second.

86222/000G-9804 is one of 10 executions of the 86222/000G base reference. Underneath they are the same watch; what separates this one is a white gold case. It was a limited edition. Introduced in 2013.
