The Monday inaugural creation addresses the winding inefficiencies of a movement powered by a micro-rotor for the first time. By adding an inertia wheel at the heart of the self winding mechanism, a patented invention from Dominique Renaud, the watch captures energy that would otherwise be lost. This innovative movement is made up of more than 250 components and is executed with a level of finishing on par with the best of the best, including no fewer than 187 inner beveled angles, thanks to Julien Tixier’s expertise in traditional crafts.

New dials for its flagship Monday watch, framed by a larger flange that echoes the geometry of the minute track and lends the display greater depth. Applied indices grow bolder, with a double index at twelve. The small seconds ring is reinterpreted to mirror the outer minute track. At the heart of the dial, the Maison’s signature grainé texture is now enlivened by a circular satin finish. The logotype is repositioned, maintaining a minimal signature that lets the craft speak first. 

Available in two colors. British Racing Green brings a warm, sporting elegance to the rose gold case and is paired with a green leather strap featuring a textile-like texture that underlines the dial’s relief. Petrol Blue, cased in white gold and matched to a suede blue leather strap.
