After 17 years of reflection, it introduces a radical invention: a free double balance, united by a flying satellite planetary differential. Crafted in titanium with a seven-level architecture, the in-house C30 calibre embodies a living heritage of the Vallée de Joux while opening new ground for precision on the wrist.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"heading-2QYKlIi4RFa\" class=\"c-heading c-wrapper\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"heading-2QYKlIi4RFa text-output cheading-2QYKlIi4RFa noBorder radius0 none\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA LIVING HERITAGE OF DOUBLE BALANCES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"paragraph-7mHoqotA02c\" class=\"c-paragraph c-wrapper\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"paragraph-7mHoqotA02c text-output cparagraph-7mHoqotA02c noBorder radius0 none\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe double balance has fascinated watchmakers for generations, from rare school pieces in the 1930s to Philippe Dufour’s Duality.

Its 39.5 mm titanium case is fully curved, top and bottom running in parallel, with a top-loading construction and fine, taut lugs. The chip-shaped dial in nickel silver reveals a white opal central disc, flame-blued steel hands, and applied titanium indexes, while at 12 o’clock the suspended planetary captures the eye. On the back, twin balances beat under elongated titanium bridges with snow-grained finishing, a language of sincerity in craft.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMovement dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Overall diameter: 29.50 mm (13’’’)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Thickness: 6.90 mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of components\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Movement: 258 components\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Flying satellite planetary: 25 components\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Weight of the planetary: 0.15 g\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Weight of the timepiece: 47.8 g\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• “Magic crown”: 31 components\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Movement, crown, case: 258 + 31 + 46 = 335 components\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of jewels\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• 45\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Semi-gloss ruby jewel set in solid molded gold chatons\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChronometric power reserve\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• 96 hours\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBarrels\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Two coaxial series-coupled fast rotating barrels with a fixed-flange spring\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBalance wheels\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Double balance with dual in-house variable-inertia, with gold mean-time screws (diameter 10mm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• 21’600 vibrations\/ hour (3Hz)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBalance spring\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Phillips terminal curve\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Titanium stud and stud holder\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBridges and main plate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• In titanium\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Hand-polished beveled angles and polished chamfers, 36 inward beveled angles, mirror-polished, straight-grained, pearling under the bridges\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Special snow-grained finishing\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Cascade bridges\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMovement side\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Stainless steel screws and pins, black-polished\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Planetary bridge in grained titanium, with hand-polished bevels and angles\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Gold plate with engraved and grained number, polished bevels and moldings, brushed flanks\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDouble regulator\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Flying satellite planetary at 12 o’clock\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Jewel bearing\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• 60-second revolution\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Flying satellite cage in titanium\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGearing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Wheel plate in CuBe\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Sharp inward angles, beveled, diamond-milled on two sides\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Stainless steel pinion with polished teeth\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDisplays\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Central hours and minutes\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Small second at 12 o’clock\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCase\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Asymmetric 6 o'clock to 12 o'clock and symmetric 3 o'clock to 9 o'clock\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFully curved shape, top and bottom running in parallel\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• In satin-brushed and hand-polished titanium\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Top-loading case\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Curved titanium side lugs\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCase dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Caseband diameter: 39,5 mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Case height: 11,7 mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Height on synthetic sapphire crystals: 11,9 mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWater resistance of the case\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Water-resistant 5 atm -
