Starting from the centre, the dial indicates the date on the first disc with the help of its jumping date hand, adjusted via a corrector at 6 o’clock. The hours of the first 24-hour time zone (home or reference time) appears to be floating weightless in its corridor. This function can be set in both directions (clockwise/counter-clockwise) via the crown. Local time, i.e. the second time zone, is indicated by the blued hands whose curvature follows the relief of the dial. The minutes hand naturally remains coordinated with the reference time, while the hours hand indicates the local time thanks to the second time zone. Local time can also be set by the crown, in both directions.
This mechanical GMT movement is equipped with the hand-wound Calibre DB2507. The owner uses the crown to set his reference time, known as home time, which is indicated by the microsphere on the 24-hour dial. The three-dimensional moon-phase display, indicates day and night thanks to its two halves: one blue and the other pink. The wearer sets his second time zone by means of the hours hand which is controlled via the crown pulled out to the second position.
In the centre of the curved dial, the vision provided is of a miniature night sky, dotted with a multitude of small white gold pins delicately and individually driven into the dial. The Milky Way is then hand-crafted using micro laser strokes and 24-carat gold leaf.
The reverse side of the movement reveals the balance with white gold inlays. This organ has the ability to neutralise the effects of temperature variations thanks to its interaction with the balance spring featuring the “De Bethune” flat terminal curve. Its aerodynamics have also been worked on so as to ensure minimal air resistance. The escape-wheel is made of silicon both for the lightness of the material and to increase the power of the calibre. The regulator is held in place by a triple pare-chute system which combines a titanium bridge integrating two jewels held in place by a leaf-spring system pressing on the jewels. The two barrels, which are partially visible, have a five-day power reserve thanks to a self-regulating energy mechanism.
