Last known MSRP 3900 GBP and these watches are hardly available outside UK. This model is not worn, we see no visible signs of wear and is in MINT (like new) condition. The ‘au Passage’ Complication (or Bel), The watch features a sonnerie au passage, meaning it automatically chimes a single, clear D note at the top of every hour. The chiming action is visible on the dial, featuring a ‘songbird’ shaped hammer that strikes a circular steel gong. A dedicated pusher at the 4 o'clock position allows you to silence the chime, with a red-tipped indicator on the dial showing the current status. Crafted from Grade 5 titanium, the 41mm case is valued for its lightweight feel (approx. 53g head-only) and superior acoustic resonance compared to steel. The open-worked dial exposes the movement's striking works, finished with hand-polished bridges and sunray-brushed baseplates. Notably, there is no logo on the dial, a choice made to maintain visual symmetry. Dial and Chiming parts come from same factory as the high-end MB&F models. We see clear visual comparisons to the MB&F Machine models, just the price is way different and very interesting! Movement: It uses the FS01 calibre, which is a heavily modified Sellita SW200-1 featuring a proprietary chiming module developed by CW's technical director. A true innovation and exceptional value-for-money. See praising reviews all over the internet to convince yourself! Delivered in our luxury box with our warranty-report and a 1-Year warranty.
