Calibre - December 2013

Bu konuda

Calibre 52 assays the metal, and leather, of Hermes as embodied in the Arceu Lift limited issue hand-wound mechanical flying tourbillon, and looks at how Vacheron Constantin honors its founder with the thinnest minute repeater in the market.

Calibre Magazine Description:

CALIBRE is about watches, instruments of daily wear marking time and frequently hitting a nerve, turning the wearer—anyone really—into an enthusiast. We zoom in on the craftsmanship of intricately balanced mechanicals, and the surgical precision of electronics, without much thought for barriers, not even for price points that are just another aspect of timepieces.

Ours is not to profile collectors but to inform on the craft—reporting from Baselword and Geneva's SIHH, interviewing the biggest manufactures and the smallest of custom makers, getting past storefronts and into the minds of the people behind the watches. Read us, join us.
