DATOGRAPH UP/DOWN MODEL, REF. 405.835, CASE NO. 222'454, CIRCA 2016

The Datograph Up/Down in platinum with baguette-cut diamond-set bezel, reference 405.835 – represents an exceptionally rare and luxurious iteration of this legendary model. Introduced to great acclaim at the 2012 Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie in Geneva, the Up/Down replaced the original Datograph Flyback that had been in production since 1999. The new model features a 41mm case diameter with power reserve substantially enhanced from 36 to 60 hours – hence its name, derived from the power reserve indicator at 6 o'clock marked "AUF" (up) and "AB" (down).

If this were not exciting enough, the present watch is further distinguished by its highly rare bezel set with baguette-cut diamonds, elevating an already superb wristwatch to the realm of high jewellery. The platinum case and signature black dial with the patented oversized date display at 12 o'clock remain faithful to the model's iconic design language.
