Following the first Mysterious Hour and Mysterious Double Tourbillon models, Cartier releases the Astromystérieux Calibre 9462 MC. The watch achieves a new feat by combining the central rotation of an escapement with the axis of the watch’s hands. The architecture of the 9462 MC calibre is every bit as ethereal in the organisation of its central axis, comprising the escapement, balance-wheel, gear train and barrel. Its elongated shape representing the minutes hand enables it to complete a full turn of the dial in one hour. Thus amplified, the visible trajectory of the movement resembles the path of a heavenly body orbiting in space, like a star suspended in the void, with no apparent connection with the rest of the mechanism.
