Technical Specifications
The Calibre • After some time, the two master watchmakers found that the calibre 99.0 with its small subsidiary second needed a somewhat more harmonic face. Different issues had been in consideration but increasing the size of the small “second” was the most appealing option. With the help of a long-standing friend of the family and many hours of refinement, the new face of Cal. 99.1 was born.
