Datograph Perpetual

You’d be wrong to think that grey is sad and gloomy, even in this bleak midwinter. All too often associated with melancholy, dust and discoloration, grey actually glows with elegance and lifts brighter colours beautifully. A perfect example is the solid silver case on the Datograph Perpétuel (which brings a flyback chronograph together with a perpetual calendar) whose warm deep grey showcases the silver-tone on the two rhodium-plated counters and the bright blue on some features. The L953.1 calibre in the heart of the 41mm white gold case brings the various functions to life: hours and minutes (centre), small seconds (8 o’ clock), chronograph minute counter (4 o’ clock), calendars (large date at 12, day of the week at 8 and month at 4), moon phase and day/night indicator (6 o’ clock). The manual wind movement provides a 36-hour power reserve. Price: 130,500 CHF
