Accompanied by a Vianney Halter combined Certificate of Authenticity and operating manual, pin, additional strap and copy of repair invoice dated January 14, 2009. Furthermore delivered with original fitted wooden presentation box with electrical winding facility, glazed porthole with riveted metal bezel to the front, and outer packaging.

Antiqua, Vianney Halter's very first model and the first model from his Futur Antrieur or Future Past collection, debuted at the Basel Watch Fair in 1998, its style best described as a "relic of the future". The Antiqua is characterized by the display of the various functions through riveted portholes, resembling watches that one might imagine on Captain Nemo's wrist while commanding the Nautilus, or worn by H.G. Wells when returning from one of his trips through time.

The heart of the Antiqua is the calibre VH198, a perpetual calendar movement developed in-house with Halter's patented mysterious oscillating weight. To ensure an unhindered view of the movement, Vianney Halter developed his so-called mysterious mass rotor, hidden behind a peripheral ring with no apparent link to the rotor.

The pink gold cased Antiqua is composed of more than 130 parts. The dials are hand-engraved, making each watch unique. The Antiqua requires approximately 900 hours to be completed.
