Collectors value this reference for its FS01 caliber, a heavily modified Sellita SW200 base featuring a \"Sonnerie au Passage\" module that strikes a chime on the hour. The design is notable for its open-worked dial architecture, which exposes the striking mechanism, bridge, and hammer on the dial side. The 41mm case is constructed from Grade 5 titanium, providing a high strength-to-weight ratio and enhanced acoustic resonance for the chime. On the secondary market, prices typically range from $4,000 to $6,500 depending on color and bracelet configuration. A notable variant is the original \"Azzurro\" blue edition, which sold out its 300-unit run in several hours, establishing the model as a significant commercial pivot for the brand into high-complication watchmaking."}, "listing_stats": {"count": 0, "median": 0, "low": 0, "high": 0}, "listings": [], "auction_lots": []}
