“LUVORENE”: an unusual yet charming name, an anagram of “Révolune” thought up by Vincent Bérard, a combination of the French words “rêve”, “lune” and “révolution” – dream, moon, revolution.
A new world first for the Louis Moinet workshops! No fewer than three years were needed to create the Tempograph, the only watch in the world to feature a visible 10-second retrograde mechanism. The perpetual movement of the cam and retrograde hand offers a mesmerizing spectacle, with the cam releasing a titanium and white gold lever in an unconventional dance routine every ten seconds
The Tissot Couturier watches express their madeto-measure character through a selection of five different movements. There are two Tissot Couturier Chrono Auto models, one powered by the celebrated 7750 Valjoux movement, the other by a newly developed ETA C01.211 mechanism. In these timepieces, the attention to detail is evident in small, finely marked, round chronograph counters, mirrored by a circular white date display. The Tissot Couturier Gent Auto turns heads with its symmetrical design, which is underlined by a two-part, arc-shaped date display at 12 o’clock and 6 o’clock. The Tissot Couturier Gent Quartz is a three-hand timepiece that seduces with its simplicity. Its counterpart is the Tissot Chrono Quartz with larger counters and a rectangular date window.
The new “LUVORENE 2” range is presented in a wider, 45 mm casing, and with transparent-sapphire blue faces which reveal the exquisiteness of the mechanism and of the “mysterious” balance, arranged offset at 3 o’clock. The unique aesthetics of the exclusive VB 441 mechanism by Vincent Bérard with its plate and spindle-shaped bridges, arranged in five stages, manually adorned, are revealed when you open the lid of the transparent bottom of the casing.
