Guided by the spirit of yachting and the art of reading the wind, the Grand Largue collection celebrates elegance in motion.
Nautical
Theory
The faceted indexes are rhodium-plated. Their elongated shape evokes the taut lines of a monohull. Coated with Super-Luminova BGW9, they remain perfectly legible day and night, ensuring a clear reading in all conditions.
An arrow at 6 o'clock indicates the direction of the tailwind. Three orange accents, drawing inspiration from maritime signage, highlight the cardinal points of East, South, and West.
The 120° and 240° graduations on the dial mark the “broad reach” point of sail, when the wind is blowing from three-quarters aft. This serves as a direct reference to the model's name, "Grand Largue".
A windborne
soul at your wrist
This sketch, inherited from theoretical navigation handbooks, is a natural extension of the dial. It translates the different points of sail and indicates the optimal sail settings depending on the wind direction. Here, nautical logic is transformed into the language of watchmaking. The dial becomes the centerpiece of the dialogue between two worlds ; that of the sea and that of time.
The second hand is an embodiment of maritime engineering, inspired by the weather vanes that adorn the tops of masts. This iconic element of navigation allows one to accurately capture and anticipate wind fluctuations and direction.
