Two-body, polished, solid case with a sapphire crystal display case back secured by six screws
The platinum crown is engine-turned in "Cordes de Marseille" Texturing
The hand-wound mechanical movement of the centigraphe indicates elapse times from 100th of a second to 10 minutes, visible on 3 dials, each with a timescale in red and a tachometer scale in black. The tachometer scale converts time for 1 km into speed ranging from 6KM/H - walking pace - to 36,000 KM/H, well above the escape velocity of a rocket going into low-level orbit.
The 100th of a second hand revolves around the dial in one second on a scale marked in hundredths of a second.
On the dial at 2 o'clock, the hand revolves once every 20 seconds on a time scale divided into seconds. The external tachometer scale indicates speed.
The third dial at 6 o'clock, graduated for 10 minutes, has a similar tachometer scale with speeds corresponding to 20-second markers.
Patented ergonomic chronograph - The chronograph is started, stopped, and zeroed by a rocker at 2 o'clock in the case band. 
Patented chronograph mechanism - A second patent was granted for the mechanism's ingenious configuration, which effectively isolates the chronograph from the timekeeping function. This means the balance amplitude is unaffected when the chronograph is running.
22K gold movement, adjusted in 6 positions.
The case, dial, and movement are all signed.
In 2008, the Centigraphe Souverain won the "L'Aiguille d’Or" (The Golden Hand) award at the GPHG (Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève), the most prestigious award ceremony in the watch industry.
Only 12 pieces are received by each boutique per year, with just two pieces made available for each model in the collection.

Warranties & Repairs

At Twain Time, trust is our timepiece's best friend. Our commitment to quality spans every pre-owned watch and mechanical marvel in our collection. Should the unexpected occur, count on us to swiftly make things right. We treasure our clients' satisfaction and trust above all else—this ethos echoes through every member of our team.

Each pre-owned watch undergoes meticulous, non-invasive mechanical scrutiny and servicing if needed. This ensures they not only meet but exceed our stringent standards for accuracy and functionality.

Rest easy knowing that unless otherwise noted, our pre-owned watches come with a robust warranty—either full or limited—spanning twelve months. However, this doesn't cover damages from misuse or accidents. Given their age, some watches may require gentler treatment than when they were brand new.

For those watches serviced by their original manufacturers, they bear the manufacturer's guarantee, surpassing our standard warranty.
