Open Gear Resec Blue On Black

The timepiece created in collaboration with Blues & Rock legend Kenny Wayne Shepherd gives a stunning 3-dimensional feel due to its unique setup and the exposed mechanics. The retrograde seconds at 6 o'clock flip back and forth like the hand of a guitar player rocking the stage and are joyful to observe.
