Lot Essay

The Christiaan van der Klaauw Titan Perpetual was made in homage to the great Dutch astronomer Christiaan Huygens, who discovered the rings and the largest moon of Saturn named ‘Titan’ in 1665. Huygens was also a highly significant figure in the development of timekeeping as the inventor of the clock pendulum.

The present timepiece is both visually and technically impressive, the perpetual calendar complication is one of the most useful in watchmaking, self-correcting for the varying number of days in a month and the leap-years. The dial is beautifully designed with an engine-turned finish and applied Roman numerals in the upper half of the dial. Large subsidiary dials display the date at 3 o’clock, days of the week at 9 o’clock and the months and leap-year cycle below 12 o’clock which has the distinctive CVDK 12-pointed sun emblem in place of the 12 numeral. The moon phase display is made from mother-of-pearl and aventurine glass.

Christiaan van der Klaauw
Astronomy, time in its purest form is the source of inspiration for the most famous watch atelier in the Netherlands.

Christiaan van der Klaauw Astronomical Watches is the only atelier in the world that is completely devoted to the design and the production of exclusive, hand-made astronomical watches.
