The purpose of this system is to optimize the number of components, therefore increasing reliability, by reducing the number of moving parts to the minimum: only two in this case “. The watch is powered by an in-house, manual winding, caliber DB 1334/1 HENRY (a tribute to Henry A. Favre, 8th generation of the Favre watchmakers) that combines the best technology available with traditional and ancestral watchmaking arts in terms of finishing and decoration: the shape of bridges (rounded “apple” heads), the double click winding mechanism with wolf teeth ratchet-wheel, screwed-in jewel settings, end-stone plates, swan neck index-regulator and a fixed balance-spring stud. This movement is also set with parallel twin barrels with direct depth that offers up to 84 hours of power reserve. A power reserve indicator is visible through the sapphire case-back. « Each movement undergoes a fine watchmaking finishing: chamfering, drawing, circular graining, sinks entirely done by hand, and a -Rayons de la Gloire- (Rays of Glory) machine finish on bridges ». The present watch is numbered 16 on a limited edition of only 24 pieces.
