REXHEP REXHEPI, CHRONOMETRE ANTIMAGNETIQUE

Model Name: Chronomètre Antimagnétique, Ref: RRCA

Case: A resistant stainless-steel case made of 30 components — One of the rare few metal cases made by Jean-Pierre Hagmann’s workshop. The movement ring, case back and dial plate form a Faraday cage to protect the movement against magnetism.

Dial: Black enamel Grand Feu dial with an inspiration from the “scientific” dials of historical chronometers — The alternating blocks along the hour scale are an abstract representation of the opposite polarities of a magnetic field.

Calibre: In-house, manually-wound movement — Hours, minutes and central seconds — Hacking, zero-reset seconds for precise time setting — Gold wheels — Movement construction and materials specifically chosen for magnetism resistance — With its symmetry and perfect finish, the Chronomètre Antimagnétique calibre is instantly recognizable as a Rexhep Rexhepi movement.

Bracelet: Ripstop Fabric

Dimension: Diameter: 38mm / Thickness: 9.90mm (whithout glass) / Lug to lug: 48.5mm / distance between lus : 20mm

Specificities: The case back is actually an external screw-down case back that can be removed by the wearer to reveal a second sapphire back to admire the beauty of the movement. A hand-engraved lightning bolt as a universal symbol for magnetism, will give the reference point for the correct alignment of the case back for its removal.
