Famed for being the creator of the “Upside Down”, Ludovic Ballouard has gained some interest over the past few years since the initial launch of the limited edition series in 2015. The concept of the watch is based on a very unique mechanism that only displays time with a single hand for the minute and the hour is determined by the only numeral that is “upright”. When the minute hand reaches the fifty-ninth second of the fifty-ninth minute of the hour, the past hour number instantaneously turns 180 degrees upside down. Simultaneously, the new hour turns right side up.
The entire movement is exquisitely finished, with a sunray brushed gilt brass movement with brushed steel Maltese crosses, each one positioned underneath its corresponding hour disk. Ballouard believed the owner would appreciate seeing the complexity of the complication and watching the discs rotate, so he placed the mechanism on the reverse, visible through the sapphire case back.
The current example is an “Upside Down” in platinum with diamond setting on the case and fitted with an attractive matte grey dial. Offered in excellent condition and further accompanied by the original certificate and box.
