The Van Cleef & Arpels Planétarium Module is an automatic movement developed exclusively for the maison. The in-house caliber belongs to the VCA Poetic Complications family and features a miniature planetarium complication displaying six planets orbiting the Sun in real time, with a shooting star marking the hours. The module was developed in collaboration with Christiaan Van der Klaauw. First introduced in 2014, the movement remains in production and powers the Midnight Planétarium and Lady Arpels Planétarium timepieces.
