The Place Vendôme Complicité Glacier Blue features two variable-inertia balance wheels oscillating in opposite directions, with four adjustment screws and four weights, feeding into a differential gearing for the central seconds.
The Place Vendôme Complicité Glacier Blue has a grainé main plate with light blue PVD and a light blue PVD circular-grained minutes and hours track.
The Place Vendôme Complicité Glacier Blue includes hand-beveling on bridges and mainplate, with 18 hand-chamfered inward angles.
