The self-winding Minute Repeater Reference 5178 is adorned with refined Rare Handcrafts showcased on the flinqué blue Grand Feu enamel dial. The white gold dial plate is finely hand-guilloched with a swirling pattern, before being coated with translucent enamel. The two "cathedral" gongs, twice as long as their traditional counterparts, give the minute-repeater a particularly rich and deep sound. The novelty is accompanied by two interchangeable straps – one in shiny peacock blue alligator leather; the other in shiny orange alligator leather, both secured by a white gold fold-over clasp.
