SAVANNA TOURBILLON PANDA

Micro-painting on a jigsaw puzzle dial:

a premiere in fine-arts watchmaking

“Each SAVANNA TOURBILLON has been conceived as a canvas for virtuosic artists and thus expresses the perfect merger of métiers d’art with haute horlogerie.”

METIERS D’ART | A puzzle dial and micro-painting

The dial is a veritable miniature puzzle painted with great attention to detail by a virtuosic artist, who succeeded perfectly in capturing the very essence of a peaceful panda emanating totally natural serenity.

Each SAVANNA TOURBILLON is a work of art that demands the kind of rare and valuable skills mastered only by very few craftsmen.

As for the puzzle itself, it is assembled on four levels, which allows you to fully appreciate the interlocking play of its eighty-one pieces. To ensure an impeccable image, the craftsman must take the puzzle apart and paint the edges of each piece with the utmost precision. Then, very meticulously, he reassembles the pieces to form the dial.

The SAVANNA TOURBILLON dial is a perfect illustration of how the craftsmanship and artistry of métiers d’art can be boldly elevated to new heights. The panda, an icon of endearment, immediately draws our eye thanks to the gracefulness of the micro-painting. It radiates tranquility and radiates an aura that attracted the adoration of people the world round.

HAUTE HORLOGERIE | The flying tourbillon

The flying tourbillon of the SAVANNA TOURBILLON is in an off-centre cage at 6 o’clock, where it works its magic making corrections for gravity and fascinating the viewer. It is driven by a hand-wound mechanism equipped with twin barrels installed “volte-face,” or head to tail, allowing them to release their energy simultaneously and delivering 96 hours of power reserve.

A pink-gold case as the crowning glory

This outstanding work of art is delicately framed by an 18-carat 5N pink-gold, 40-millimetre case with well-defined, flowing curves. The domed sapphire crystal, a technically challenging element to manufacture, reveals the captivating details of the puzzle and the tourbillon. The open-worked horns perfectly underscore the integration of the bracelet.
