It is found in particular in Vacheron & Constantin watches with a slightly more advanced finish when in Jaeger LeCoultre watches but the effectiveness of the caliber is the same whatever the level of finish. Very correctly angled, its rhodium-plated finish is impeccable. Its architecture allows it to have a large balance wheel, which is one of the secrets of precision. Its very smooth barrel when winding, the flexibility of the spring and the finish of the escapement are points which are totally convincing on this movement.
