Ecole d'Horlogerie de Genève, Masterpiece, cased after the Second World War. Fine 18K gold, keyless, pocket lever chronometer with one minute tourbillon regulator. Four body, massive, "bassine et filets carrure ronde", polished. Detachable gold glazed cuvette. White enamel with Roman numerals, outer minutes ring and sunk subsidiary seconds. Blued-steel "spade" hands. Notes The carriage of this tourbillon is very similar to that used by James Pellaton. Originally made, as usual, with a nickel plated workshop case, this movement was certainly cased in gold after the Second World War.
