Press release
Mr Christophe Claret will be presenting this spectacular timepiece at a press conference on Tuesday, October 2nd at 15:00 local time in the Gran Salón of the Four Seasons Hotel in the Mexican capital.
The watchmaker from Le Locle will also be exhibiting in Suite 848 for the duration of the fair – the most important haute horlogerie exhibition in Latin America – which runs for three days from October 2nd until October 4th.
Soprano has already been preselected in the top ten of the Complicated Watch category by the Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genève jury ahead of this November's awards ceremony.

Soprano features a four-note minute repeater striking Westminster Quarters on cathedral gongs, tourbillon, Charles X style bridges and a titanium caseband to optimize sound transmission. Soprano is available in three limited editions of eight pieces in either red gold or white gold.
Soprano pays homage to the roots of Christophe Claret's manufacture, which has innovated in exceptional complications, minute repeaters, tourbillons and sapphire components since its inception. Indeed, in 1997 Christophe Claret was the first to incorporate sapphire components in a wristwatch movement.
