There is something deeply fascinating about the Automatique Lune Havana. Like every creation signed by F.P. Journe, nothing is left to chance.

The color of the dial is not a simple aesthetic choice, but the fruit of months of research by the masters of Les Cadraniers de Genève. Only after long experiments did they manage to obtain the perfect alchemy between color rendering and material.

The result? A warm and velvety brown, born from the rare encounter between gold and ruthenium. A unique shade, which makes this watch immediately recognizable and deeply evocative.

Presentata a Watches and Wonders 2025, la referenza 10827 del Riviera Chronograph di Baume et Mercierr abbina una estetica sportiva e raffinata a dimensioni contenute. La cassa in acciaio misura 41 mm di diametro e meno di 14 mm di spessore e si distingue per le finiture ricercate, che fanno il paio con quelle del quadrante bianco e dei contatori neri. La scelta di incassare un movimento robusto e affidabile come il Valjoux 7753 ha consentito al brand di contenere il costo dell’orologio in una fascia prezzo abbordabile, abbinando estetica e contenuti tecnici.

An icon born to fly. In 1904, Louis Cartier created a revolutionary watch for his friend and aviation pioneer Alberto Santos-Dumont: the Cartier Santos Dumont was born, the first men’s wristwatch and a timeless legend in watchmaking.

In 2022, the Maison paid tribute to a model from the 1920s with three new editions in steel, rose gold and plat inum. New details such as the lacquer on the bezel and lugs, together with a dial decorated with an original concentric cube motif, enhance its vintage charm.

The most desired? The rose gold version, produced in just 250 pieces. Discover it now in our Pre-Loved section on WatchInsanity.it.
