This year’s most complex pilot’s watch, featuring a perpetual calendar that only needs adjustment once every 2100 years and a 7-day power reserve. The moonphase at 12 o’clock is cleverly designed to depict the Little Prince standing on his planet, gazing at the stars, while the 18K gold rotor is also engraved with the image of the Little Prince.
The 18K red gold case, with a diameter of 46mm, pairs perfectly with the oversized onion crown, presenting a vintage feel.
The deep blue dial continues the pilot’s “instrument panel” tradition, with the date and power reserve indicator combined at 3 o’clock, the date and small seconds at 9 o’clock, the month at 6 o’clock, and the year hidden between 7 and 8 o’clock. The hands and markers are treated with Super-LumiNova, allowing clear visibility of the time and date even at night.
Limited to 270 pieces, each watch comes with a first edition English copy of The Little Prince, as well as a reprint of the original manuscript written in French by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry.
