Official description
For its second participation to OnlyWatch, Baltic is delighted to introduce its new fine watchmaking line, named Baltic Experiments with this unique Premier Quantième Perpétuel.
For two years, we pushed our own boundaries by achieving something we never thought possible: developing our own Perpetual Calendar. This project became possible thanks to the collaboration with the talented watchmakers of Maclef, founded by Emmanuel Bouchet. We aimed to establish a timeless and easily readable way of presenting all the essential elements of a Perpetual Calendar.
The meticulously balanced dial incorporates three distinct sub-registers to indicate the days, month, leap year, and a moon-phase in silicium material, with a continuous second hand at 6 o’clock.
The prominent pointer date harmoniously complements the overall aesthetic, positioned towards the outer edge of the watch.
Starting from a blank page, this modular perpetual calendar was 100% reinterpreted and run by the ultra-thin Vaucher 5401 micro-rotor movement. The idea was to make the passage of days to the end of the month as quick as possible. Therefore, moving the date functions like a sonnerie system. The date will change from the 28th, 29th, 30th to the 1st of the following month in around 1 to 4 seconds.
