‘P7350’ is today part of the RAF’s Battle of Britain
Memorial Flight (BBMF) and it was during their
2008 restoration that our historic metal partner,
TMB Art Metal, was able to directly acquire a
piece of original Duralumin, namely her main
spar plus various pieces of outer skinning.
A WATCH OF HISTORIC PROVENANCE
That metal was then processed and laser-
cut by Johannes Jahnke and his team at our
Swiss atelier in Biel, to form discs to fit within
the backplate of the C8 P7350 Chronometer.
Working closely with our watchmakers, the
quality manager and deploying our in-house
Calibre SH21 in, for the first time, a hand-wound
execution, the production of the C8 P7350
Chronometer is a process of which we are
justifiably proud. Every component piece has
been brought to life meticulously, by hand,
and with the attention to detail deserved by
such an important object.
