CHIMING TIME

From the Patek Philippe Grand Complications collection, the 38-millimeter Ref. 5078 G minute repeater is crafted in 18-karat white gold and houses a self-winding mechanical movement. The dial is black enamel in a unique design of scrolls and arabesques. President of the brand, Thierry Stern, listens to every chiming watch before it can be o ered to the customer. Price on request.

The Code 11.59 Minute Repeater Super Sonnerie by Audemars Piguet houses the brand’s 362-part hand-wound Caliber 2953 with Supersonnerie sound technology that was eight-years in the making (and debuted originally in 2016). Crafted in gold, it features a ceramic octagonal case middle and smoked sapphire dial that allows for an almost secretive look at the movement. Approximately $352,000.

From independent Swiss brand H. Moser & Cie., the 40-millimeter Endeavour Concept Minute Repeater Tourbillon Aqua Blue is crafted in 5N 18-karat rose gold featuring a fumé grand feu enamel dial with aperture for viewing the double hammers of the handwound movement. The watch features a sliding bolt with Teflon runner that activates the repeater. Only 20 will be made. $365,000.
