Frequential One F110 - MCT
Demonstrating the creative freedom that defines MCT, the Frequential One F110 combines a central suspended balance wheel and a traditional hours- and-minutes display.

Radically different? While MCT’s famous prisms displaying the hours are replaced here by traditional hours and minutes hands, this original reading of time nonetheless remains true to the avant-garde spirit of MCT, as does the iconic case revisited in a 42 mm version. Based on an original creative concept, its new Manufacture movement is distinguished by a balance wheel positioned above the center of the dial. Centering the escapement (equipped with a variable-inertia balance wheel teamed with a Breguet terminal curve) involves shifting the transmission from beneath the movement to the center. This technical feat is accentuated by the aesthetic demands of the traditional hours and minutes displayed : guided by a ball bearing, the hand bushes (pipes) appear around the exterior of the central escapement and placed on ruby rollers. This clever perspective-based staging of the movement and its components exudes a sense of weightlessness. The depth effects and sense of lightness are magnified by the variety of colors and surface treatments, as well as by the contrasting finishing operations – brushed, polished, circular-grained, bead-blasted and Côtes de Genève – gracing the famous cross-shaped bridge. This resolutely technical content flaunts a modern elegance reinforced by the sapphire inlay enhancing the case middle and subtly integrated with the titanium layers. The undeniably mysterious personality of the Frequential One is also resolutely masculine.
