The size

We do not ask you for it. The atelier's archive knows the Overseas references one by one; from the reference the case is traced. The watch remains on your wrist.

What changes for the strap

The lug width is not that of a spring bar: it is taken on your watch, in the atelier or from the photograph.

The leather

Alligator, box calf, suede, shell cordovan: the leather is chosen together, in the atelier or by video call. Where it enters the case the strap is as thin as the piece it replaces; on the wrist it returns to its thickness. The calf lining, the edges painted in several layers, the hand stitching in saddle stitch.

The time

Four, five weeks from confirmation. In the atelier in Via XX Settembre or by video call, wherever you are. Care for the first eighteen months is included.

The next step

The right strap is not chosen. It is built together.

Six models

In 1977, for the maison's 222nd anniversary, the 222 was born, with the bracelet integrated into the case. The Overseas arrived in 1996 with the 42040; the second generation dates to 2004, the third to 2016. From the third generation, bracelet and straps change without tools.

The 222, from which it descends

In 1977 the 222 brought the bracelet integrated into the case, with hexagonal centre links; inside, the ultra-thin calibre 1121.
