Perrelet is offering a five minute repeater that is unique in its configuration. It has the P-201 repeater calibre, which allows you to activate the ringer mechanism « on demand » by simply pressing the button which is located in line with 8 o’clock.
As initiation low-pitched tone (one strike for the hour) sounds the hour, followed by two tones in succession, one low-pitched and one high-pitched, which sounds the five minutes (two strikes in succession for every five minutes that we have passed since the last hour).
The legacy of the expertise of the watchmakers of the ninteenth century, this wristwatch meets Perrelet’s quality criteria in particular in terms of its water resistance which is guaranteed up to five atmospheres (fifty meters). However, the volume of sound is guaranteed by means of an ingenious « empty case » system, which offers a greater resonance compared to that of a standard case.Due to the high degree of complexity involved in the manufacture of the mechanism, Perrelet only produces this model in very small quantities (up to a hundred and twenty each year). Aficionados and connoisseurs alike understand this limitation perfectly, as it is so difficult to offer a sound, a melody that keeps pace with the passing of time.
