OVERVIEW
A SEAMLESS INTEGRATION OF TIMELESS COMPLEXITY
DESIGN
THE FOUR-COUNTER PERPETUAL CHRONOMETRE
The Master Control Chronometre Perpetual Calendar boasts a refined four-counter aesthetic with an elegant 39mm diameter and 9.2mm thickness. Its integrated metal bracelet ensures a perfect fit, blending vintage codes into a contemporary design with sleek proportions and rich, subtle details.
A CELESTIAL HARMONY OF HAMMERED GOLD AND BRONZE TONES
A bronze-coloured sunray dial meets the warm tones of the case and hands, framed by a mix of polished and brushed surfaces. This finish extends to the integrated bracelet, defined by its alternating satin-brushed and polished links. The four sub-dials of the Perpetual Calendar feature additional finishes with an outer opaline ring and central azuré finish, and a hammered gold leaf moon.
A BRACELET ECHOING THE DAUPHINE SIGNATURE
Extending seamlessly from the case to follow the curve of the wrist, the integrated bracelet creates a singular, harmonious form. Its V-shaped bevels mirror the geometry of the Dauphine hands and trapezoid indexes, creating a refined aesthetic rhythm where every link echoes the elegant character of the dial.
CALIBRE
IN-HOUSE CALIBRE 868: WHERE PRECISION MEETS EXQUISITE DECORATIONS
Reflecting the Manufacture's mastery of energy efficiency, compact volume, and chronometric performance, the automatic Calibre 868 is a testament to in-house craftsmanship. Designed, produced, decorated, and assembled entirely within our Manufacture, it offers a 70-hour power reserve and a 4 Hz frequency, all within an exceptionally thin calibre and reduced diameter.

8 UNIQUE DECORATIONS ON 332 COMPONENTS
A sapphire case-back and open-worked 22K pink gold mass reveal a finely finished movement with Côtes de Genève, sunk rubies, polished grey screws, and bevelling among other HPG seal decorative finishes.
BETWEEN SYMMETRY AND BALANCE
The Master Control Chronometre Perpetual Calendar offers a full calendar display in four sub-dials, with months and year at 12 o’clock, days of the week at 3 o’clock, and dates at 9 o’clock, complemented by a moon phase indication at 6 o’clock, accurate until 2100. A single corrector, positioned on the side of the case, makes adjustments very simple.
HIGH PRECISION GUARANTEE SEAL
THE SEAL OF ENDURING RELIABILITY
The High-Precision Guarantee (HPG) rigorously tests calibres and cased watches against daily wear cycles over 3 days that cover two typical weekdays and one weekend day, simulating wrist positions, pressure, temperature variations, and shocks.
BEYOND RELIABILITY: DECORATIVE EXCELLENCE
The HPG label ensures that each calibre component receives meticulous decoration from a range of eight decorative techniques: circular graining, Côtes de Genève, circular smoothing, burnishing, polished screw-heads, linear smoothing, sinked rubies, and bevelling.
HERITAGE
EIGHT DECADES OF INNOVATION UNDER THE MASTER NAME
Born from the quest to create “the ideal contemporary watch” blending high performance, distinctive design, and ergonomic comfort, the Master Control Chronometre synthesizes eight decades of Master creations.
