Maurice Lacroix - 'MasterPiece Phases de Lune' —...

Welcome to my Top Swiss Wristwatches Boutique: Maurice-Lacroix has been making fine Swiss timepieces since 1975. The company's passion for detail is shown especially in extremely elaborate, sophisticated watch dials, finely decorated and finished movements, some of which are enhanced with additional intricate complications. Maurice Lacroix Masterpiece collection is the flagship mechanical line of this Swiss luxury watchmaker, launched in 1990 (initially introduced or known under the name "Les Mécaniques"), focusing on mechanical watchmaking and heritage complications. The Les Mécaniques / Masterpiece line includes limited edition models based on historic or heritage movements purchased during the height of the quartz crisis and refinished to high standards. The company is also known for its alarm wristwatches, chronographs, and jump-hour Masterpiece watches, which Maurice Lacroix produced using heritage movements. In addition, this line includes watches based on extensively modified ébauches from ETA, Unitas and others that incorporate numerous complications, including retrograde movements, power-reserve indicators and calendar modules.

Distinctive design. High recognition level. Distributor's stock: the card isn't stamped. For watches older than two years, “original warranty” means that the warranty card is included. Excellent condition, never worn: the wristwatch comes from luxury watch-shop showcase. Leather straps often suffer from temperature in shop windows due to powerful spotlights, that's why the strap is replaced with brand-new one. My personal authenticity and quality warranty: you will get warranty card (as pictured), fully completed, stamped and signed. My impeccable seller reputation speaks for itself: look at my feedbacks and sales ratings. Insured, registered shipping worldwide with Intl. Express service — it’s not cheap, but it’s fast and reliable: two days within Europe and three days to the rest of the world. What you see is what you get. These are my own photos of the actual watch up for auction. NO EXTRA COSTS for EU Buyers! Timeless elegance, celestial charm—this Maurice Lacroix MasterPiece turns every glance at the time into a moment of pleasure. My verdict as a collector and connoisseur with over 30 years of experience: this MasterPiece offers an exceptional opportunity to enjoy the complications of high-end watchmaking at a fraction of the price commanded by the most prestigious brands.
