The Manufacture 1967 MC movement with manual winding has been specially developed to harmonize with the singular lines of this all-new aesthetic, such that all 142 of its components can be housed in the smallest space possible. With this watch, everything goes one step further, and as such the moving parts of the movement become one with the bridges. The distortion appears accentuated, as if the crown has dragged the movement down.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith bridges shaped like Roman numerals, the technique used and finishes present reflect the Maison's watchmaking excellence.
