Ref. TI017BLJ08

Blackjack 21

格睿時,獨特,黑色塗層PVD鈦金屬,自動上弦腕錶,配嗚響裝置及遊戲:21點、骰子及俄羅斯輪盤,“Blackjack 21”,型號TI017BLJ08,約2012年製

The present example by Christophe Claret is part of a limited edition series of 21 watches. Aptly named "Blackjack", the watch is like a miniature casino due to its "interactive" design. For example, two dice are suspended in a clear glass case at 4 o'clock. The case back features a rotating roulette wheel, and one can actually play a game of blackjack, using the watch dial as a black jack table. The watch houses a full set of miniature cards, which shuffle when the center button is pushed, striking the hammer and gong. Furthermore, the dealer and the player each have their own specific pusher assigned to them.

The present lot is offered with all its original accessories, and the watch itself is in like new condition.
