           Octa Automatique Réserve_

Ref.

AR

            The Octa line introduces the Octa Automatique Réserve model with a silver guilloché F.P. Journe dial resembling that of the

Chronomètre Souverain, and centered hour and minute hands for easier and more traditional time reading.

            The arrival of the new Octa 1300.3 calibre symbolises the never-ending quest for optimum functionality and features a 22K red

gold off-centered rotor with mono-directional winding and a self-locking ball bearing system. The ceramic balls allow the rotor to move
in one direction, while blocking it in the other. Every infinitesimal movement is thus maximally exploited for optimized winding.

            

Octa Automatique Lune_

AL

            Created the same year as the Octa Automatique Réserve, the Octa Automatique Lune, with a silver guilloché F.P. Journe dial,

offers centered hour and minute hands for an easier and more traditional time reading.

            The new Octa 1300-3 calibre results from the never-ending quest for optimum functionality and features a 22K red gold off-

centered rotor that winds in only one direction, with a self-locking ball bearing system. The ceramic balls allow the rotor to move in
one direction, while blocking it in the other. Every infinitesimal movement is thus maximally exploited for optimized winding.
