Chapter One is the first watch by Maitres du Temps. It also world's first world-first combination of complications crafted from 558 components. No other wristwatch has featured a tourbillon with mono-pusher column wheel chronograph, retrograde date, and retrograde GMT, as well as moon phase and day of the week on their own rolling bars. Long, flowing compound curves traverse the case while scintillating laser-pierced moon and stars on the outer roller of the moon phase indicator add to its stellar elegance.
Their first model is the Chapter One which is thickly stuffed with complications including a tourbillon, mono-pusher chronograph, retrograde date, retrograde GMT, and two rolling bars at 6 o'clock and 12 o'clock, indicating the day of the week and phase of the moon. A small window between the day roller and tourbillon allows a peek at the gyrating tourbillon cage. The watch is done in an 18K red gold case and has some pretty hefty dimension, 62.60 mm x 45.90 mm
A tour of the dial reveals central coaxial hours, minutes, and chronograph 60-second counter; tourbillon and day of the week roller at 6 o'clock; retrograde GMT at 9 o'clock; 60-minute chronograph counter and precision moon phase roller at 12 o'clock; and retrograde date at 3 o'clock.
The two rollers work simultaneously with the time, date, GMT, and chronograph and are large enough to be easily read and small enough to be ultra-light and homogeneous with the case.
A small window between day roller and tourbillon allows a unique view of the superbly finished gyrating tourbillon cage.
Mirror-polished angled surfaces bring the multi-level dial to life, and even the locking corrector pushers are from curves meeting at an imaginary point to follow the graceful flow of the case.
