The Friedrich II Remontoir Prototype 00 features a unique titanium movement.
In contrast to the intricacy of the movement, the watch’s face is rather simple. The black enamel dial is offset by pops of red in the index 00 and the second indexes, which were filled by hand with Super-LumiNova. The glow-in-the-dark pigment is also used in the watch’s hands, giving them a slight sheen as well.
The bracelet was designed exclusively for the watch, too. It’s made of stainless-steel Milanese wrap knitted fabric, and can be adjusted with individually removable screws. “The present timepiece is seductive and offers a tremendous combination of breakthroughs for any discerning collector,” the auction house said in a statement.The Lang & Heyne timepiece is expected to fetch more than $59,000 at the auction.
