FABERGÉ – Visionnaire Chronograph Ceramic/Titanium – Only Watch

FABERGÉ – Visionnaire Chronograph Ceramic/Titanium – Unique for Only Watch 2017

“ IF LIFE GIVES YOU LEMONS ...”

To mark 100 years since the Russian Revolution, Fabergé presents a chronograph of revolutionary significance in the horological cosmos, paying homage to the unfinished Constellation Egg of 1917.

The Fabergé Visionnaire Chronograph marks a new standard in charting time. Hours and minutes are read at the periphery of the watch dial while the chronograph function takes centre stage. The automatic calibre 6361, developed in partnership with Agenhor, offers a new intuitive chronograph display.

It is a revolutionary new movement that imparts unprecedented clarity, precision and efficiency to the highly popular chronograph complication. It is the modern-day analogue to a Fabergé egg — a mechanical opus with wonder at its heart.

The timepiece features an opaline dial with TCI luminescent coating 15-minute indicators, sapphire with metallic treatment and applied numerals and hour indicators and an automatic chronograph movement, developed by Agenhor, encased in a 43mm black ceramic and DLC-treated titanium case.

Aurelie Picaud, Global Timepieces Director, said:
“Fabergé is honoured to be taking part in the important Only Watch project. The first deliveries of the new Visionnaire Chronograph were due to take place in November; however, Fabergé has worked closely with its external work-masters to ensure the first Chronograph was available to dedicate to this special cause.

Jean-Marc Wiederrecht and his team at Agenhor developed the revolutionary chronograph movement that is housed in this watch and Someco has created the bespoke dial, so we’re thrilled to offer a special-edition Fabergé Visionnaire Chronograph to the Only Watch initiative.”

Only Watch Partnership

Now presenting its 7th Edition, Only Watch is a biennale auction of unique timepieces that has raised over 25 million Euros to date. Under the patronage of HSH Prince Albert II of Monaco and following the initiative of Luc Pettavino, President of the Association Monégasque contre les Myopathies, Only Watch is an international watchmaking charity event.

All of the funds collected from the sale of the watches are donated in their entirety to scientific and medical research. The exclusive watches will embark on a world tour starting in the charity’s hometown of Monaco, and then continuing to Asia, the Gulf, the United States and Europe, before the final auction in Geneva on November 11th 2017.
