Girardier Chromium 41 1809 CG.OG1.01.B02 crafted in brushed &
polished finish 18k White Gold round shaped case… Charles Girardier,
known as "Girardier the Elder", was a master watchmaker in Geneva and
is a contemporary watch brand. Beautiful Mechanical Swiss Watches:
Precise movements and luxury designs in perfection. The CG 1809
Chromium Tourbillon Signature Mystérieuse reflects this tradition
with combining selected materials, finishing, color combinations and
functionality. The achievements of Mechanical Timepieces offered by
Swiss made CG are quite impressive. “Charles Girardier now opens up
the 1809 collection first men's version of the Mysterious Signature
(Signature Mystérieuse) flying tourbillon, the 1809 Cobalt Blue 41 mm
pushes the boundaries of the possible in both modern and traditional
watchmaking. The most sophisticated craftsmanship techniques converge
in a watch that is both complex and refined, masculine and elegant.
Discreet from afar, stunning up close, it combines a grand feu enamel
dial with an Haute Horlogerie movement, itself combined with a
miniature automaton: The initials C and G at 12 o’clock, animated by
the Mysterious Signature, visually counterbalance the tourbillon at 6,
always in motion and according to their own rhythm. The 1809 Cobalt Blue
41 mm is dedicated to lovers of fine watchmaking who appreciate
substance within form”. Both the Flying Tourbillon & Signature
Mystérieuse CG automaton form a figure “8” which is a throw back to
1809, and is the symbol of infinity, prosperity, abundance, harmony,
constant flow of energy and power. Charles Girardier watches are
beautiful and outstanding time pieces in everyway...

...The
Signature Mystérieuse at 12 o’clock is powered by a small
oscillating weight, which is not used for winding but to animate
the initials C and G. A rotating component, marked with a rosette
motif, carries one half of the signature, while the other, akin to a
hand, rotates independently. When the arm moves, the two parts
move and occasionally align. This system is the subject of a patent
application...

...Flying

Grey demonstrate how the Charles Girardier collection pushes
boundaries. Complicated and refined, they are fashioned using the
most demanding and sophisticated techniques of art craftsmanship...

Girardier...
Movement... Mechanical with automatic self-winding by bidirectional
peripheral mass movement, Calibre CG 1809/04-32 rubies, 4 Hz /
28,800 vph single ball bearing, one minute flying tourbillon
regulator, Components: 307, Decoration: Garneted bridges, horizontal
satin-finished and polished tourbillon bridge, polished tourbillon
cage set with diamonds, sunray-brushed peripheral mass, bevelled
plate and bridges, blued screws, Power reserve: 46 hours...
The
CG 1809 calibre is self-winding, but without a central rotor,
which would obstruct the view and spoil the spectacle of the
mechanism. This winding is carried out by a peripheral mass that
circles the movement. The design of the CG 1809 calibre allows it
to work without the slightest noise. In addition to the unobstructed
view, this results in an equally pleasing reduced thickness. This
rotor evolves around an environment made of matt textures, polished
angles and blued screws...
