This anniversary series is distinguished by its colour combination: its finely sandblasted, white rhodium-plated movement matches the white dial and inner bezel ring, complete with blue numerals and minutes track. Exclusively available at Art In Time Monaco #FerdinandBerthoud

Chronométrie Ferdinand Berthoud has created an exclusive five-piece limited edition of the Chronomètre FB 3SPC in sandblasted titanium to celebrate the fifth anniversary of ART IN TIME gallery. #FerdinandBerthoud

Each option of customisation gives a totally different look to the Calibre FB-RES.FC. How would you dress up your Chronomètre FB RES? Round or octagonal case? Anthracite or champagne dial? #FerdinandBerthoud

Did you know that this timepiece has more than two linear metres of hand chamfering? Each wheel, bridge and screw is entirely hand-decorated. An extraordinary level of manual finishing has been applied in order to reveal the beauty of each component. #FerdinandBerthoud

The Chronomètre FB 2RES.1-1 with a round case in 18-carat white gold and a satin-brushed champagne dial is another variation offered by the manufacture. #FerdinandBerthoud

In 2020, the Maison unveiled the FB 2RE, equipped with a double regulation system combining fusee-and-chain transmission with a one-second “remontoir d’égalité”. It is now offered with a completely revisited design intended to highlight its sophisticated inner workings.

The FB-RES.FC calibre, in addition to the constant-force mechanism, is equipped with a one-second remontoire visible on the back of the movement. It is one of the most complex torque regulation systems in the history of time measurement. #FerdinandBerthoud

The Chronomètre FB 2RES.1-1 with a round case in 18-carat rose gold and a satin-brushed anthracite dial is one of the variations offered by the manufacture. #FerdinandBerthoud

This new collection is open to customisation in a wide range of options. In all, more than 200 variations can be simulated on an online configurator specifically created for this model. #FerdinandBerthoud

This calibre, which has won awards for its precision timekeeping performance, now reveals more of how it operates through the customisable bridges and mainplate of the new Chronomètre FB RES. #FerdinandBerthoud

Chronométrie Ferdinand Berthoud is pleased to unveil its new collection: the Chronomètre FB RES. The FB 1RES.4 with an octagonal case in ceramised titanium and a sand-blasted anthracite dial is one of the variations offered by the manufacture. #FerdinandBerthoud

The Chronomètre FB 2T is an invitation to experience bespoke. Out of the 38 customisable movements, here is an example in 18-carat white gold combined with a 3N sandblasted brass dial. #FerdinandBerthoud

The cylindrical balance-spring was favoured by Ferdinand Berthoud and Louis Berthoud in their precision timepieces. It remains a daily technical challenge to integrate it in a wristwatch while retaining its original purpose that was to guarantee accuracy. #FerdinandBerthoud

Within one year the Chronomètre FB 3SPC has won several awards : "Best Men's Watch 2022" by Revolution magazine, then winner of the "High Watchmaking" category in the "CH24 Watch of the Year 2023" competition and most recently the prestigious “Chronometry prize” at the GPHG 2023.

To mark its first anniversary, the Chronomètre FB 3SPC is unveiled in a new, contemporary guise: the 42.3 mm 18-carat white gold case houses a movement in black and anthracite tones, embellished with gilded hands. #FerdinandBerthoud

Chronometry Prize is awarded to Ferdinand Berthoud - "Chronomètre FB 3SPC" with Karl-Friedrich Scheufele, CEO of Ferdinand Berthoud #gphg2023 #ferdinandberthoud #fgpswissandalps #forbesglobalproperties

SPONSORED: Ferdinand Berthoud embarked on an ambitious 3-year research and development programme to create something special - the first and only wristwatch with a cylindrical hairspring that has been officially certified as a chronometer (COSC). escapementmagazine.com/articles/chron…

In a practical sense, the cylindrical hairsprings were unsuitable for use in wristwatches, since their chronometric advantage would only be manifested if the watch was always kept in the horizontal position. At Chronométrie Ferdinand Berthoud, this was a challenge to take up.

The round case of the Chronomètre FB 3SPC recalls the curves of pocket watches from the early 19th century. The large porthole in the case middle at 9 o’clock reveals the key element of this timepiece: the cylindrical hairspring beating. #FerdinandBerthoud

For its second participation in @OnlyWatch_off, Chronométrie Ferdinand Berthoud is offering a new version of the FB3 collection: one-of-a-kind model presented in a patinated bronze case, a tribute to the ‘Master Watchmaker’ title granted to Ferdinand Berthoud just 270 years ago.
