Eclectic Sunday: our watch of today is the importa Eclectic Sunday: our watch of today is the important Ferdinand Berthoud Montre Astronomique No.3, a watch not made by Mr Berthoud himself but by Jean Martin in 1806 on commission by Berthoud, a year before he passed away. Martin used Berthoud’s watch No.73 as base and created a simplified version of it. The asymmetric layout of the dial is of typical, classic Berthoud beauty, as is the superb execution. The movement shares Berthoud’s design and comes with a fusee and chain as well as a complex and most delightful balance assembly. One ‘Easter egg’ is the mysterious dial at 4 o’clock: it shows the amplitude of the balance using a hand fitted directly onto the balance staff - the movement is not wound in our images, hence the hand is hidden under the steel cock. For those who want to know and see more, @the_naked_watchmaker has an excellently illustrated page on this watch! #ferdinandberthoud #berthoud #montreastronomique #pocketwatch #vintagewatch #antiquewatch #finewatchmaking #chronometer #chronometry #wotd #watchoftheday #watchdaily #watchesofinstagram #watchcollector #watchcommunity #eclecticsunday #beeclectic #theeclecticum

Piaget - ´watchmaker-jeweller` or ´master watchm Piaget - ´watchmaker-jeweller` or ´master watchmaker-jeweller`, it´s up to you to decide. They are known (at least if you talk to connoisseurs) for their ultra-thin movements, founded back in 1874, as a movement supplier first. Only in 1943, they registered the trademark ´Piaget` and started to offer their own watches, under their own name. About 10 years ago Piaget started a project to bring their approach of finishing to another level and their (already) “finishing masters” got extra lessons. More employees than before got that special training. One should have a detailed look on their watches, at least the best ones. Looking at their PR we quite often have the impression they almost forgot their own roots and focus on being a jeweller, with some exceptions of course. #beeclectic #piaget #watchmakerjeweller #masterwatchmakerjeweller #ultrathin #wotd #uhren #watchfam #instawatch #watchesofinstagram #watchcollector #theeclecticum #watches #watchaddict #objectofdesire
