  • Catalogue Essay

    Maître du Temps is a collaborative brand launched in 2005 with a philosophy of creating original horological masterpieces by bringing together a group of independent watchmakers who merge their ideas and DNA. The brand launched its first model in 2008: Chapter One was developed by Christophe Claret, Roger Dubuis and Peter Speake-Marin. Chapter Two, launched the year after was developed by Daniel Roth, Peter Speake-Marin and Roger Dubuis. The present Chapter Three Reveal was launched in 2012 and is the brainchild of two of horology’s greatest minds: Andreas Strehler and Kari Voutilainen.

    At first glance the Chapter 3 looks like a rather simple watch with date (at 2 o’clock), moonphase display at 4.30 and seconds (at 8 o’clock). However the name reveal takes on its full meaning when the pusher on the crown is pressed. Two panels open to reveal a day/night roller at 12 o'clock and rollers for a second timezone at 6 o'clock. The day and night are represented by beautifully graphic moon and sun faces. The home time is indicated via two rollers, each with 6 numbers, when the hour transitions from 6 to 7, the carriage holding the two rollers shifts over instantaneously, bringing the next roller into the aperture. Both the day/night and time zone rollers are engraved and hand painted! The pusher at 9 o’clock desynchronizes the rollers from time indication when setting the local time.

    The Chapter 3 houses caliber SHC03 developed specially for it and the DNA of each watchmaker is truly visible and in perfect harmony. Turning the watch around reveals this beautiful movement with its unusual architecture, the day/night and home time rollers are also visible enabling an even better understanding of their functioning.
