Reverso Tribute Enamel Xu Beihong Two Horses

Since its creation in 1931, this iconic reversible watch has proved to be a truly inspiring artistic canvas. As a tribute to the art of ink wash painting and honouring the spirit of the Year of the Horse, our Métiers Rares™ craftsmen have reproduced Xu Beihong's "Running Together" on the reverse of the Reverso Tribute Enamel. Executed in miniature enamel painting with dynamic brushstrokes and varying shades of ink, this masterpiece captures the essence of the untamed energy and resilience embodied by these iconic steeds. The dial, guilloché with a barley-seed pattern and layered with translucent blue Grand Feu enamel, provides a striking contrast to the artwork on the reverse. The meticulous reproduction of this iconic artwork and the creation of the dial require over 80 hours of manual labour, with multiple firings in an 800°C oven to achieve the subtle tonal variations of the enamel and the vibrant depth of the dial.
