MasterGraff Minute Repeater Tourbillon

The minute repeater was invented in the 17th century and enabled the owner of a watch to check the time at night without having to light a candle. The MasterGraff Minute Repeater is equipped with one such mechanism, triggered on demand by an upward push on a dedicated repeater slide positioned on the side of the case. Two hammers striking two gongs sound the hours, quarter hours and minutes on low - high tones.

In addition to the hand-wound movement with an 80-hour power reserve, this eminently masculine dress watch features a flying tourbillon revealed through a dial opening at 6 o’clock encircled by a small seconds disc. The tourbillon has become a symbol of horological expertise and fine traditions and the unique visual appeal of the MasterGraff Minute Repeater makes a fine match for the auditory pleasure of its chimes.

The black or white lacquered dial with rose gold indicators and triangular-cut gemstone set at 12 o’clock is complemented by the characteristic diamond-tipped crown and facetted 47mm case inspired by a single brilliant-cut diamond. Secured to the wrist by a black or brown crocodile leather strap, this distinctive and elegant model is issued in two strictly limited 30-piece editions in rose or white gold. Nothing can hold a candle to the aura of refinement conveyed by this prestigious association between the minute repeater and tourbillon
