UNCOMPROMISING DESIGN
Unveiled in « les ateliers » during Baselworld 2019, this edition is strictly limited to 20 pieces.
The ASSET 2.2 has an automative inspired case design, its inspiration is a tribute to iconic high performance cars.
The wearer can fully appreciate this totally original timepiece which reveals carefully thought out details, especially the ASSET ring.
There is an obvious parallel between a car’s muffler and a watch’s escapement, they both regulate speed.
A watch’s escapement manages the release of power from the mainspring in a way that can be regulated by the balance wheel and hairspring, whereas a car’s muffler regulates the exhaust gas velocity.
Based on this observation, designed like a perforated exhaust pipe, the ASSET ring confirms the timepiece’s strong racing heritage.
