Grand Reverso Email Friedrich

積家,「Grand Reverso Email Friedrich」型號246.1.15,十分精細及限量版,黃金翻轉式腕錶,備大明火白色琺瑯錶盤、日期、8天動力儲存顯示,配臨摹德國著名畫家卡斯帕·大衛·弗里德里希畫作的微繪琺瑯錶盤,限量發行5枚,編號5號,約2000年代製。附原裝證書、錶盒、配件

True mastery craftmanship unfolds as the wearer swivels this Grand Reverso to its reverse. As complex as it is meticulous, a romantic seascape of three elegantly dressed silhouettes gaze outwards to the horizon as the moon rises to the east above a band of violet clouds, this is one of the renowned masterpieces from the most prominent Romanticism German artist Caspar David Friedrich, Mondaufgang am Meer “Moonrise by the Sea.”

Extremely demanding resulting highly limited production, the present Grand Reverso is one of five pieces ever created of such painting. Numbered 5 from the edition, this is the final piece to be completed in-house by master enameller atelier led by the talented Miklos Merczel with a heritage in Vallee de Joux since 1996.

The main dial is in the most discreet look, a white grand feu enamel canvas that displays its function in the most legible manner. Elegantly placed, a power reserve of a total of 8 days anchors the top left corner across the blue chemin de fer, followed by the date and small seconds that can be read at ease.

Exceptionally preserved and complete with its certificate and accessories, the present yellow gold timepiece is truly a hidden treasure amongst the world of Reversos. Expressing the grandeur of both the painter and master enameller, this is easily one of the most collectible reverso for those who has a passion for horology and art.

Please note that the proceeds of the sale of the present watch will be given by the Consignor to various charities.

Jaeger-LeCoultre

Swiss | 1833

Not all companies in the watchmaking field have been able to stand the test of time quite like Jaeger LeCoultre, also known as the "watchmaker's watchmaker." Founded in 1833 by Antoine LeCoultre and originally named LeCoutre, the firm provided watchmaking's top brands, such as Patek Philippe, Vacheron Constantin and Audemars Piguet, the high-grade, unfinished mechanical movements with which they completed their watches.



In the early 1900s, Cartier's watch supplier Edmond Jaeger sought out LeCoultre's help in creating the world's thinnest watches. The collaboration resulted in the creation of Cartier's earliest Tank and Santos watches, all housed with LeCoultre movements. The duo decided to merge in 1937, and the firm officially became the Jaeger-LeCoultre brand by which collectors know and adore it today. Some of the firm's most significant and important timepieces include the Reverso, the Memovox, the Atmos clock and, among modern watches, their Master Complications.
