This intricate timepiece is constructed with 21 jewels and features a straight-line lever escapement and a monometallic balance. Designed for both durability and accuracy, it includes an anti-shock device, a self-compensating flat balance spring, and a micrometer regulator. The hacking seconds device allows for precision time setting, ensuring that every second is accounted for with absolute accuracy.
