The haute horologie astonishes with those sexy back pieces, offering the view onto the innermost precious and complicated working of uncountable gears. The Swiss company Caran d’Ache set oneself to create a crafts product that adequately celebrates the genius of watchmakers in the spirit of the great “Swiss made” tradition. The ten minutes past ten, short 1010, is a fountain pen which gives the words a very special luster. The fountain pen pays tribute to the intricate complications of fine watches with a cage of gears and gear-trains made of 18 carat gold, plated-silver and rhodium which makes it as valuable as it looks and works.
