Maurice Lacroix once again affirms his watchmaking skills in the realization of retrograde displays by presenting, this year, the first Triple Retrograde watch in the Masterpiece collection. A room combining elegance and precision, available in two aesthetisms adapted to the desires of each.
KEY ELEMENTS OF THE WATCH
MASTERPIECE COLLECTION TRIPLE RETROGRADE
LINKING BOLDNESS TO EXCELLENCE
Propelled in two versions of the cadrans, this watch plays on the complementarity of styles: the first at the classical and timeless appearance has a silver dial guilloche "Clous de Paris" with microbbly surface, black decals and bluish needles. The second in the modern and daring look has an anthracite dial with azure finishes "Côtes de Genève", silver powdered silver and 4N gold needles. The dial that shows the hours and minutes proposes to supplement the display of the calendar at 6 o'clock, the time of a second time zone at 12 h and the indication of the days of the week at 3 o'clock.
The two pieces are dressed in a 43 mm steel housing with generous dimensions to preserve a legible and easy to interpret display. Underlying these features, the calibre ML291 ensures the smooth operation of the Triple Retrograde Masterpiece. Efficient, it is the perfect combination of an automatic lift base SW200 and a factory module developed and assembled in the workshops of Maurice Lacroix. This calibre of finishings is visible thanks to the sapphire bottom of the housing.
The two declinations of this watch to the daring aesthetics are available on black alligator leather strap for the parted version of an anthracite dial and blue night for the one with a silver dial.
