Catalogue Essay
Created to celebrate the advent of the new millennium in 2000, reference 5100 combines a groundbreaking 10 days movement with an extremely elegant and intriguing case design deeply rooted in the company’s history. The 10 days power reserve is supplied by two massive mainsprings, whose equally massive jewels are well noticeable through the glazed back. Produced in the three gold colors and platinum, all versions are limited editions. Out of the 3000 pieces made, only 450 examples are in white gold.
