“A watch as a work of art” is the credo of Julien Coudray 1518. Witness the Competentia 1515 model with its movement entirely made of platinum and powering functions including day/night, power-reserve and service indications. The calibre does not exceed 5 millimetres, making the watch extremely pleasant to wear. The dial is adorned with 11 enamel parts using the plique-à-jour enamelling technique, a fine means of revealing the finesse of its décor. Meanwhile, the peripheral enamel and gold hour-markers offers a modern take on 16th century clocks. 15-piece limited series of each version: platinum, yellow gold, red gold or white gold.
