Description
Competentia 1515 Tourbillon, "Humanoid Face" Collection, 2013 edition inspired by the Australian Aborigine, unique masterpiece 1/1. Fabien Lamarche, founder of the brand, drew the sketch for this “face” some years ago, imagining a way to sculpt a dial from solid gold and grand feu enamel. The traditional crafts of hand-engraving and enamelling enabled him to unveil this collection “Humanoid Faces”, an interpretation of the marks left by time on the faces of the world. 95 % of the watch is made from 1.5 kilogram of solid platinum: movement (patented process), case, crown and buckle. No chemical treatment neither lacquer. Manufactured in Le Locle (SGS certificate).
