Furlan Marri x Dominique Renaud x Julien Tixier Secular Perpetual Calendar

For its first participation to Only Watch, the young independent watch brand Furlan Marri has teamed up with renowned watchmakers Dominique Renaud and Julien Tixier to create an ultra-simplified, modular secular perpetual calendar. A secular module is grafted onto this perpetual calendar, making it accurate over the next centuries, including leap and secular years. 

Dominique Renaud carries in him the inventor’s flame: he first puts his ideas down on paper and then turns them into models, the old-fashioned way, as he did in the days of Renaud & Papi, with plexiglass and metal parts. Then it’s the turn of Julien Tixier, who, in addition to co-inventing, translates the concepts and ideas into something the computer can understand so that all the parts work together and can be manufactured: the case, the components of the date module, the dial, but also the finishes and various treatments, such as electroplating and titanium treatment.
