SIGNED CHRISTOPHE CLARET, MAESTRO MODEL, REF. MTR.DMC16, NO. 17/88, CIRCA 2017

The present Christophe Claret Maestro reference MTR.DMC16 is a contemporary masterpiece of independent haute horology. Measuring 42mm in grade 5 titanium, the eye-catching timepiece forgoes a bezel and utilizes a heavily domed sapphire crystal to encase the three-dimensional movement. This allows for a fuller view of the winding wheels, barrel, and escapement which add liveliness to the watch. Impressively, the watch features a conical date that utilizes two revolving cones that can be quick-set using the lower pusher. Further, the upper pusher actives and deactivates the 'memo' complication to remind the wearer of any task they may need to accomplish. The 'memo' cone features a diamond on one side and blue sapphire on the other for distinction. Blue sapphire stones are also set in the top of the balance cock and conical date, adding an wonderful, opulent detail to this modern mechanical marvel.
