Its defining feature lies in the absence of a conventional dial: instead, the entire movement is revealed, fully hand-engraved with intricate motifs that extend across the mainplate and bridges. Each calibre requires dozens of hours of meticulous work, transforming every component into a canvas of exceptional detail. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"957\" data-end=\"1401\"\u003eAt its heart beats the manually wound Calibre 4400\/1, a movement celebrated for its purity and architectural clarity.
