Chopin Opus 10 No. 12: The First 'Etude' By A Musically Inspired Independent Brand From Poland

To be perfectly frank, the new Chopin brand will not make Poland known as a watchmaking country either The new Chopin brand is dedicated to the famous composer and pianist Frédéric Chopin, who was born in Żelazowa Wola on March 1, 1810 The timepiece issuing as the debut is linked to Chopin's Étude Op.

10 No 12 in C minor, famously known as the "Revolutionary Étude." The dial of Chopin's Opus 10 No 12 has a lot going on, but that's due to the choice of making it a semi-openworked face offering a view of the movement underneath.

Hand-wound Caliber MSE210 boasts 96 hours of power reserve thanks to twin serially operating spring barrels, one of which is inscribed with an engraved Chopin quote reading, "Time is the best censor and patience the most perfect of teachers." The other is engraved with important dates in Chopin's life Also noticeable on the plates is an engraved sentence from a letter Chopin wrote just after the November Uprising in Poland ended on October 21, 1831 There will only be 56 pieces of the Chopin Opus 10 No.

12 - 56 due to the license received from the Fryderyk Chopin Institute and the Polish Ministry of Culture. . Source
