Description

The way time is presented in the Upside Down should remind you how important it is to live in the moment. The past time and the future time are, literally, presented upside down to tell you that there should be no regrets about the past which you cannot change and no qualms for the future which you don’t know anything about..
Ludovic Ballouard managed to create the unique Upside Down movement within a year. The movement is patented, making it unique to his watches. The cases and crowns are engraved by hand in Geneva.

Along with the 12 maltese cross mechanisms most of the movement is visible to the naked eye. Ludovic’s idea is that the dial should bring a smile to your face while the movement will fascinate you, as you can see the whole complication set moving through the sapphire crystal display back.

*The present watch is made of platinum case with  special applied white gold numerals on a matt blue colour dial.
– Available by order, we will also make sure you meet Ludovic Ballouard in our showroom for a personal  handover followed by a lunch in Geneva.
