Catalogue Essay
For all those who enjoy indulging in a bit of nostalgia, Perrelet has created a one-of-a-kind Turbine Sheriff watch. It stands out with its 48mm-diameter pink gold case middle creating a striking contrast with the black rubber-coated bezel and alligator leather strap. The exhibition back provides a chance to view its in-house mechanical self-winding movement: Perrelet Caliber P-331.
The standout originality of the watch lies in the dial, on which the customary blades of Perrelet’s iconic Turbine model have been replaced by a black gold-tipped sheriff’s star. As it turns, the latter reveals a humoristic inscription on the under-dial in reference to the great American Western movies.
This timepiece thereby pays a highly original tribute to the founder, Abraham-Louis Perrelet, pioneer of the self-winding movement in 1777, to whom the brand owes its innovative character and its avant-garde spirit.
