Catalogue Essay
- The present "La Rettrapante" features a full calendar, moonphase display and what is considered by watchmakers themselves as the most complex complication to master after chiming movements: the split seconds chronograph.

- Launched in the late 1990s the present neo-vintage piece features a beautifully guilloché dial and grooved front and back bezels.

- The movement is based on the iconic vintage Venus 179 split seconds caliber.

- Part of a limited edition of 200 pieces the present example bears lucky number 88.
