Is it possible to reproduce the random Texas Holden #games in a #watch?  
To arrive at nearly 100 thousand possibilities of games it was necessary, starting from a white page, to invent and create almost 700 components for the watch.

Maestro blue coral,

This #watch brings together several crafts, notably for the feathered snake which is in engraved #gold enhanced with miniature hand-painted #paint.

The tops of the pyramids are adorned with natural #rubies as well as the indexes on the flange.

Mamba #watch,

Wrapped around the movement, it’s undulating hand-engraved body created a powerful contrast between the tangy green brilliancy of it’s scales and the Matt black shade of the #movement.

Margot,
He loves me… he #loves me not,

#Margot features an ingenious #mechanism that helps to ‘predict’ – or at least tries to – one of #nature’s paramount questions: “Does he love me?”

[Christophe Claret @Claret_Time]

The desire to endow the #Soprano with a low-pitched, powerful sound also dictated the choice of #titanium and #gold as case materials. The combined use of these two metals for the case middle as well as the case-back and the bezel ensures optimal resonance.

Poker,

Poker is yet another demonstration of #ChristopheClaret's daring know-how.

The ease of use when playing #Poker is as impressive and unexpected as its intrinsic complexity. Up to three players face each other around the #watch.

Its name is inspired by the excellence of the Master-#watchmaker. Its sleek style epitomizes #mechanical power. At the crossroads between aesthetics and technicality, #Maestro showcases an original take on the #horological creativity of #ChristopheClaret.

[Christophe Claret @Claret_Time]

Enthroned at the heart of the #Angelico #watch, the #tourbillon performs its stately dance involving one full turn in three minutes, in order to reduce the impact of its inertia.
