The house of Romain Gauthier introduces a special limited edition timepiece equipped with the time-only movement - a first for the Insight Micro Rotor. The watch is powered by an exquisitely finished in-house automatic caliber with a bidirectional micro-rotor made from 22-karat gold. Thanks to the openworked dial, the rotor is visible both from the dial side and through see-through case back. The rotor swings in two directions, between two bridges, winding the mainspring barrel for up to 80 hours of power reserve.
The new, limited edition of Romain Gauthier’s Insight Micro-Rotor is crafted from white gold. It arrives in a medium-sized case measuring 39.5 mm in diameter. The openworked dial features the colored hour-minute subdial at 12 o’clock and the centrally positioned small seconds indicator. The beating balance is visible at 6 o’clock, while the micro-rotor appears at 9 o’clock position.
The elements of the movement are framed with a circular cut-out of the mainplate that has been hand-frosted and treated with 4.5N rose gold. Just like the mainplate, the bridges on the back of the movement are gold-treated and decorated with hand-frosting, hand-polished bevels and jewel countersinks.
Insight Micro-Rotor white gold is available in three 10-piece limited editions: with oven-fired white enamel dial, oven-fired black enamel dial, and oven-fired blue enamel dial. The watch features a brown alligator leather strap, hand-stitched in Switzerland with white gold pin buckle. Deployant buckle is also available upon request.
The price of these limited edition watches is CHF 79,000 excl. taxes. For more information, please visit romangauthier.com.

Romain Gauthier presents Enraged Limited Editions

Romain Gauthier Logical One Natural Titanium
As explained by the famous independent watch manufacturer, the new addition to the Logical One collection surely deviates from traditional case materials typically enjoyed by ultra-high-end collectors. In Gauthier’s own words: “Titanium is still a step too far for many. I respect that, but I believe that in time high-end collectors will move over and eventually won’t think twice about acquiring an haute horlogerie timepiece in titanium. For Logical One Natural Titanium, my instinct was ‘build it, and they shall come’. Personally, I really wante...

Romain Gauthier Logical One Secret
Romain Gauthier Logical One Secret is announced as the ultimate synthesis of fine arts and haute horlogerie. This beautiful watch arrives in a 43mm-wide case with fully integrated cover, set with 181 invisibly set baguette diamonds, totaling approximately 7 carats. The invisible setting is one of the most demanding jewelry procedures since each and every stone has to be cautiously grooved, which involves a risk of breaking the stone. A single press on the discrete pusher will lift up the diamond-encrusted cover to reveal the award-winning multi...
