A vivid expression of Geneva's fine watchmaking tradition
TRADITIONNELLE MOON PHASE 83570/000R-9915
The Traditionnelle collection is the supreme expression of the most demanding Geneva Haute Horlogerie traditions inherited from the 18th century. Imbued with history and a sense of rigorous discipline, Traditionnelle timepieces showcase technical refinement conveyed through eminently horological characteristics. From the simplest to the most complicated, these models pay tribute to craftsmanship and know-how passed on from generation to generation.
Born out of a prestigious line of exceptional timepieces, the Traditionnelle collection is a continuation of the watchmaking craftsmanship and know-how of centuries past. For over 260 years, tradition has been a living art within the Maison, where the value of transmission takes meaning. Generations of watchmakers have consistently sought to elevate the art of Geneva’s cabinotiers so that their reputation lives on. This unwavering spirit is passed down from master to apprentice, from one watch to the next.
After three centuries of uninterrupted history, emotion is intact and expressed through watchmaking pieces in which the aesthetic underlines the technical. Intimately linked, form supports function to give the Traditionnelle collection all its noble character. With timeless elegance and contemporary stringency, only the most willfully talented watchmakers can bring works of mechanical art to life – works unanimously recognized today and doubtlessly so in the future.
Subtly fashioned and infinitely refined, Traditionnelle creations are anchored in the heritage of their line. Featuring a stepped round case, a fine bezel and fluted case back, a railway minute-track, applied “Geneva baton” hour markers and dauphine-shaped hands, each of the collection’s models perfectly combines creativity with technical prowess. Watchmaking codes are respected to a tee and suggest a new, naturally enhanced story.
