The Caprice '03 Ref: Caprice03AA Description: Limited Editions "Caprice '03" the latest addition to the "Carré Cambré" family. In 2002, Dubey & Schaldenbrand introduced "Vintage Caprice" - a limited-edition very unique timepiece using the renowned Aerodyn tonneau-shaped case. This year, Dubey & Schaldenbrand are pleased to introduce "Caprice '03" which offers the same features of "Vintage Caprice", this time using the "Carré Cambré" (cushion-shaped) case. What makes "Caprice '03" so special? Most watches have the crown at the 3 o'clock position. "Caprice '03" has its crown at 9 o'clock. This feature along with the "Carré Cambré" shape brings to mind Dubey & Schaldenbrand's highly-sought limited edition "Doctor" model which was introduced in 1997. Apart from this, "Caprice '03" features many practical functions namely a large-size (220 degree) power-reserve indicator and the easy-to-read date "big date" window (with 2 separate disks). The design and style of the dial is very "Art Nouveau". With its retro-style hour markers and the delicate skeleton hands, this watch definitely captures the look of the 1920's. "Caprice '03" is limited to 250 pieces in 316 L stainless surgical steel and 50 pieces in 4N 18 K Rose Gold and, available in a selection of 3 enamel-based colors - white, black or blue. Self-winding, automatic ETA 2892A2 movement (specially-modified for Dubey & Schaldenbrand to include the features stated above), 22 jewels, Incabloc, Glucydur balance wheel, Nivarox I hairspring, polished steel anker and anker wheel, "chronometer-quality", rhodium-plated "Côtes de Genève" pearl-patterned bridges, blued-steel screws.
