'Pour le Mérite' movement featuring the rare fusée-and-chain transmission, rarely implemented in wristwatches. 915 individual components with the filigreed chain composed of 636 parts transformed into 212 links forming a 152mm chain. A drop-shaped cutout in the three-quarter plate reveals the high-precision transmission. The fusée-and-chain works like an infinitely variable gearbox, equalizing the waning force of the mainspring.
