Massena LAB is proud to once again partner with the Swiss Institute as an official sponsor of the TimeForArt auction in partnership with Phillips in Association with Bacs & Russo. For the 2024 installment, Massena LAB will contribute “Petrichor”, a pièce unique by Massena LAB and Raúl Pagès. Measuring 38.5mm in diameter, the stainless steel timepiece features a harmonious dial in a warm sable tone with a sunburst finish, which shifts in the light from umber to sandstone.
Petrichor is a term which describes the singular, pleasant, and nostalgic scent that emerges when rain falls on dry soil, originating from the Greek words “petra,” for stone, and “ichor,” the divine blood of the gods in Greek mythology.
Petrichor is powered by a proprietary caliber, the manual-wound M690, which was designed for Massena LAB by the Swiss independent watchmaker, Raúl Pagès. The movement, whose finishing features a high-level of hand decoration, is visible through an exhibition case back. Petrichor, a pièce unique, will not be commercialized or reproduced.
