Our first ever precious metal offering had to be something special: so we retained a small number of the La Joux Perret LJP5000.M1 monopusher movements which were completely reworked and refinished in rose gold. Coupled with our love of chronographs, it made sense for us to start from this base.

We went all in on the concept: the watch would be a jewel-like, monolithic block of metal, scintillating and warm. 18K 5N rose gold was the ideal material for the case and dial, to complement the movement and give the impression of solid continuity. The overall construction of the watch remains the same as the original 37.04 Titanium, with the guilloched dial by Comblemine now made from a single thick piece of 18K 5N rose gold and topped with an etched and HyCeram filled sapphire upper dial. 

The 37.04 Rose Gold has a new, deeper, and reducing radius guilloche pattern focused on the chronograph minute subdial; it is deliberately asymmetric and focused at the same time. The pattern has extreme relief for maximum visual impact and could only be created using CNC milling as it is too deep for traditional rose engines. It is a very dynamic dial – not just because of the angles of the guilloched surfaces, but also due to the upper sapphire layer that provides transient inversion. All white elements on the dial and crystals are made luminous with various types of Super-LumiNova X1.

All of this is housed in a case of solid 18K 5N rose gold, with our signature flared and twisted lugs. It has multicoated sapphire crystals front and rear, and alternating textured finishes. Manufacture Schwarz-Etienne remains responsible for engineering and final assembly, with our usual partners Jean Rousseau and Koji Sato providing finishing touches.
