Catalogue Essay
Destined to inspire wonders and admirations, the spectacular DeWitt Academia Quantième Perpétual Nebula GMT epitomizes the perfect amalgamation of fine artistry and advanced horological prowess. Impressively, the watch incorporates some of the most important complications in twenty-first century horology, featuring a perpetual calendar, dual time zones as well as moon phases. The moon-phase disc and its surrounding semi-circle of main dial is placed at the top of the dial, providing a wondrous impression of the nocturnal galaxy.

Subsidiary registers of day, date, month, leap year cycle, and 24-hour are placed at the lower part of the dial. At center, a red GMT time-zone hand sits beneath the hour and minute hands. Specially crafted in 18K white gold, titanium and black ceramic, the 43-mm. case of the watch was designed to pay homage to the classical colonnade of neo-Roman architecture. Each of the vertical columns is fashioned from black ceramic or brushed titanium in alternating sequence.

Aesthetically and mechanically impressive, the Academia Quantième Perpétual GMT Nebula is number 2 of a limited number of 99 example, making it a truly exquisite timepiece to own.
