A tribute to the works of Abraham-Louis Breguet and, closer to us, Philippe Dufour, the X.3 presents, on the dial side, the twin pulsation of oscillators that mutually compensate and harmonize each other. Beyond the mechanical prowess, the three-dimensional architecture of the movement achieves the reconciliation of the parts with the whole. 

Phoenix 10.3 "Gatsby"

Three centuries of watchmaking history allow us to draw freely from different eras and tendencies. For this piece, we chose the golden years of the Roaring Twenties, where the angular geometry of art-deco followed the crazy curves of art-nouveau, an endless reservoir of mechanical inventions, architecture and fine arts. 

Phoenix 10.3 "Hugo"

The front stage is all about symmetry. We peal the layers down, showing the magic in motion, from the regulators dragging their escapements to the rotating differential gear. In the backstage, owner’s privilege, asymmetry fights back. We take off with a wolf teeth ratchet wheel and its eagle shaped c lick and aircraft’s spring. We land on the other side of the differential gear train, mounted on a winged bridge, with non-conical satellite gears to limit the friction on the escapement. 

We bring movement decoration, trimming work that became an art, into a new dimension. We climb on progressive angles, on balcony “beach” chamfers and continued reliefs on different bridges.
