Ferdinand Berthoud FB 3SPC.2-1 unites rose gold and nickel silver

The Chronomètre FB 3SPC.2-1 was unveiled for the opening of Art in Time Tokyo. Its 42.3 mm ethical 18-carat rose-gold case is 9.43 mm thick and includes a sapphire side porthole at 9 o’clock. Sandblasted nickel silver, beige tracks and blue CVD-treated gold hands create a warm monochromatic composition. Water resistance is 30 metres.

The hand-wound FB-SPC calibre exposes its cylindrical balance spring and regulating organs on the dial side. It contains 230 components and 47 jewels, beats at 21,600 vibrations per hour and supplies 72 hours of reserve. COSC certification supports the chronometer designation, while the display adds small seconds and a power-reserve indicator.
