Villeret Répétition Minutes

An automaton is a mechanical device that performs programmed movements, often mimicking life. Integrated into watches, it blends function and artistry. Powered by gears, levers, and springs, it reflects centuries of horological ingenuity and the watchmaker’s creative mastery.

A minute repeater is a prestigious watch complication that chimes the time on demand using tones: low for hours, mixed for quarter hours, and high for minutes. Activated by a side lever, it features intricate mechanics and is revered for its technical mastery and artistry in watchmaking.
