What to know
Andersen Genève’s Jumping Hours Rising Sun uses a small hour aperture and a separate minute display to leave most of its dial open for decoration. The pink-gold surface carries an intricate hand-cut lozenge pattern, while the minute subdial adds a contrasting texture. A platinum case provides a cool frame around the warm dial.
Introduced in 2023 for the Japanese market, this 50-piece edition measures 38mm. Its automatic Frédéric Piguet 11.50 base supports Andersen’s jumping-hour module and supplies a 72-hour reserve. The transparent back reveals an engraved gold rotor with a BlueGold ring. This profile preserves the original reporting date; it is not presented as a recent launch.
