De Grisogono continues to produce exciting new complications. Its new Instrumento model houses one that the brand has never included in its collections before: the annual calendar. This timepiece is a perfect example of De Grisogono’s meticulous attention to detail: a triple-level, partially engine-turned dial with windows in an arc, oversized Arabic numerals, and a skeleton caseback. This watch encapsulates the brand’s distinguishing characteristics, originality and boldness.
