The “Swiss Made” trademark is an indication for precision recognized world-wide that implies a technically perfect watch, assembled with the most demanding standards. The Quality Control team inspects all the watches for any aesthetic issue and all components showing even small defects are removed and replaced. Then, all timepieces are subjected to a 48-hour test for good working. THE IMPORTANCE OF THE PACKAGING

The long expertise of local artisans has led to the creation of boxes made of solid walnut wood destined to last. It is not just a container but an object recalling the long artisan tradition of Friuli Venezia Giulia, one of the districts associated with the excellence of “Made in Italy”.

This new version of the 1977 series, still produced in Limited Edition of only 77 pieces, is recognizable by its lacquered navy blue dial dressed with gold indexes «2N18»,an alloy composed of yellow gold, silver and copper, the design recalling the blue fabric and the stripes and buttons of ceremonial uniforms of French military sailors.
The 1977 WRV « V » Automatique « Royale » maintains the crown at 4 o'clock. This feature allows to protect the crown from shocks without overloading the case with a protective guard; it also greatly enhances comfort as the crown does not burrow in the wrist when moving. This watch also retains a sapphire crystal with a thickness of 3.5mm, a feature usually reserved for timepieces designed to descend to great depths, ensuring the reliability of this model. Completed by a black Barénia calfskin strap, hand-stitched in the French Jura, the elegance of the WRV « V » Automatique « Royale » is indisputable and goes perfectly with the uniforms of the officers of the Royale. Comfortable in the corridors of rue Royale as anywhere else, this new 1977 WRV Automatique 1977 is synonymous with tradition and elegance. |
