Catalogue Note
In 2014, Jaeger-Lecoultre unveiled the outstanding Hybris Artistica Collection featuring twelve unique timepieces of seemingly limitless creativity and design. Manufactured completely in house, the collection is a brilliant testament to the virtuosity of Jaeger-LeCoultre's master watchmakers and engineers.
The present lot celebrates the dual wing concept where by two mainspring barrels work independently to regulate the tourbillon and timekeeping. This horological feat reduces amplitude errors and allows for unrivaled accuracy. The Brilliance of the dual wing system is masked only by the impressive 18k white gold dial with a luminous textured surface treatment. The narrowest bezel and domed crystal ensures that the dial and movement are celebrated properly.
