GALLET Multicron Regulator cal. Venus 170 / 1940s Vertical Registers

— Time above, counter below —

A unique dial with the minute counter and the running seconds stacked vertically.

The layout is entirely in the service of the chronograph's function, yet those two eyes in a vertical line look almost like a mirror image, holding a slightly uneasy balance — a beauty that is deliberately not too neat.

A mysterious beauty of form from an unusual vertically stacked dial. Fitted with the celebrated Venus Cal.170, the movement that makes this rare stacked-register construction possible. Case patina from eighty years, with the weight of real vintage. A one-of-a-kind classical design built on a balance that is unsettlingly imperfect. A piece that carries the breath of history quietly and stirs a collector's instincts.

— Venus Cal.170 —

The unusual vertical layout comes from the Venus Cal.170 inside.

Movements that make this distinctive arrangement possible are rare — only a handful exist, including Valjoux Cal.77 and certain Pierce calibres.

— A quiet drawn from visible age —

Eighty years have left their traces as a faint shadow of oxidation across the mainplate, and the lifting of the chrome plating reads more like decoration adding depth.

What a machine woken from a long sleep carries is a resonance that deserves to be received as the breathing of history.
