Manufacture Royale is the young watch company producing unique timepieces which combine dynamism, perfect quality and exclusivity. Due to these features, the watch brand has already won love and attention of collectors and lovers of wristwatches in addition its unique models are of great popularity around the whole world. The brand's name is not chosen by chance. The company pays tribute to François-Marie Arouet Voltaire, one of the most outstanding French philosopher-enlighteners of the 18th century, poets, prosaists, historians, publicists, who was born on the 21st of November, 1964, in Paris, France. Few people know that Voltaire during his stay in Ferney, a town of France lying between the Jura mountains and the Swiss border, created his own watchmaking business for the social élite. The Manufacture Royale company produces timepieces following the motto “E pluribus, unum ” that means “one among many”. But the brand does not want to be one among many, it is striving to reach perfection to which Voltaire was doing. The original Manufacture Royale models are equipped with exclusive movements of unique design which you can enjoy due to transparent front and back sapphire crystals of watches. This movement was developed by two talented watchmakers Michel Navas and Enrico Barbasini, the founders of the BNB company, at the Fabrique du Temps factory. They worked at the caliber during 3 years. A diameter of the movement is 32 mm, and thickness is 5.54 mm. It has a minute tourbillon, a minute repeater of frequency 21,600 h and a 100 hour power-reserve. It consists of 319 components on 21 precious stones (rubies). The movement with a tourbillon and a minute repeater sounding like C note and minutes – E sharp, bears a strong resemblance to calibers of pocket watches of the 19th century. Arnaud Faivre, a French entrepreneur and general director of the Manufacture Royale company, repeats the Voltaire's words: “Great minds think alike”. In confirmation of this statement, the exclusive Opera Time-Piece watch has been launched that satisfied requirements and expectations of true enthusiasts. Arnaud Faivre noticed that the unique watch was his great dream which he had realized due to the team of talented people. The exclusive model is presented in several models: with a case made of 18 carat yellow, pink, black gold and combination of pink and white gold. A diameter is 50 mm. A case consists of 60 parts. The design of the unfolding case resembling bellows of an accordion, is also interesting. Such design was specially invented to provide deep sounding of the repeater. Three sapphire crystals including a crystal being instead of a back case protect the skeletonized dial. A crown, hands, bezel screws to the case and fasteners for an alligator leather strap are made of 18 carat gold of different colours depending on colour of the model case. The watch has the unique Michel Navas and Enrico Barbasini's movement. The Opera Time-Piece watch is the limited edition of 12 pieces. The exclusive model of the Manufacture Royale company will be an indispensable part of collectors and wristwatch lovers' collection who truly appreciate innovation technologies, exclusive design, high quality and manual work.
