7000/50G – RARE HANDCRAFTS
SELF-WINDING
Set of two ladies minute-repeater wristwatches with dials in cloisonn enamel over hand-executed guilloch work.
These two limited editions in white gold and rose gold are adorned with pairs of swallows in flight created in Grand Feu cloisonn enamel.
The dial plate in white or yellow gold was hand-guilloched with a fine traditional basket-weave pattern that shines through its coating of transparent enamel in a splendid example of flinqu enameling. The enameler then created the detailed contours of the birds with outspread wings using from 35 to 50 cm of gold wire (0.21 to 0.29 g) measuring 0.07 x 0.4 mm in cross-section, before bringing the decoration to life with transparent, opaque and opalescent enamels in from 13 to 14 colors. Each dial required 8 firings at a temperature of approximately 750掳C.
The case in white gold or rose gold houses the caliber R 27 selfwinding movement with minute repeater striking on two gongs. This movement, comprising 342 finely decorated parts, is visible through a sapphire-crystal case back. The two watches also come with an interchangeable back in solid white gold or rose gold.
