KRAYON Anywhere Métiers d ’ Art Azur
This stunning artisanal complication , cased in platinum , indicates hours and minutes via two hands in the center of a dial that appears to be suspended in the center of the watch . It is surrounded by a solar display that indicates the time over 24 hours . The ring-shaped display is divided into the diurnal sector ( sky blue ) and a nocturnal sector ( midnight blue ). These displays indicate the sunrise and sunset times , as read on the inner bezel . The date and month are seen on a subsidiary dial at 6 o ’ clock .
The new watch echoes the Krayon Anywhere Edition Only Watch 2021 , with its exceptional dial created by an enamelist who has deposited , by hand , a dot of lacquer until the desired blue color obtained , producing a truly unparalleled result .
Krayon explains that as a double calendar , for which all months last 31 days , the watch require only five annual adjustments , easily and quickly made using the crown in both directions .
Krayon has equipped the Anywhere Métiers d ’ Art Azur with the in-house Caliber C030 , entirely assembled by Rémi Maillat , Krayon ’ s founder and master watchmaker .
The manual-wind 39mm by 9.5mm watch offers an impressive eighty-six hours of power reserve . A limited edition of fifteen , it offers the purchaser the opportunity to set the watch to the city or location of his or her choice for the indication of sunrise and sunset .
Price : CHF 150,000 .
