Catalogue Essay

In 2005, Chronoswiss introduced the Digiteur MSA (Montre sans Aiguilles), which translates to "watch without hands" in English. This unique timepiece features a rectangular watch movement based on a NOS (New Old Stock) shaped-movement from FEF. FEF, founded by Jules Jéquier and David Louis Petitpierre in Fleurier, Val de Travers, Switzerland, in 1882, specialized in producing movement blanks. In 1920, their movement-blank division gained independence under the name "Fabrique d'ébauches de Fleurier (FEF)."
Chronoswiss founder, Mr. Gerd-Rüdiger Lang, known for his unwavering passion for mechanical timepieces, came across this extraordinary find and acquired its captivating contents for his Munich-based watchmaking company. However, to meet Chronoswiss's exacting standards, the original caliber underwent meticulous modification and refinement.
With its enduring design and a time display limited to just 99 pieces in white gold, the Digiteur MSA is a truly remarkable addition to any collection. Complete with its accompanying accessories, this timepiece adds a touch of whimsy and fascination to the world of horology.
