Catalogue Essay
While Chaumet is most famous for their jewelry and gem-set masterpieces, the Maison also produces excellent and high quality time pieces. The present watch, fitted with a mother-of-pearl dial and roman numerals, is accompanied with a minute repeating mechanism which chimes in a clear and beautiful tone. It is very rare for a jeweler to create such a complicated wristwatch - indeed, this sentiment is reflected on the watch dial which reads " No. 10", suggesting that the present watch was produced in a very limited number of examples only.
