The dog with a power reserve in its mouth
By Marco Bellini, Zurich ·
The jaw opens and closes with the power reserve. I laughed the first time I understood it, and I still do.
54 mm across and 23 mm tall, in titanium. This is not a watch for a shirt. It is barely a watch for a sleeve. Hand-wound, 45 hours, with two domes on top for the time and the balance suspended above the movement where you can see it beat.
Max Büsser has never pretended these are practical and I won't either. Reading the time is slower than on any ordinary watch. 30 m. 110,000 to 120,000 USD.
If you laughed too, go ahead. Don't, if you need to know the time in a hurry.
