An Openworked Wonder by Molnar Fabry
The Classic Tech Art is a bespoke timepiece from the independent watchmaking duo Molnar Fabry, showcasing their unique approach to craftsmanship. Built upon a Vaucher cal. 5401 ébauche, the watch features extensive finishing on both visible and hidden surfaces, emphasizing open-worked movements that reveal the intricate mechanics within. The design reflects a departure from their previously ornate styles, opting for a more contemporary, minimalist case made from a blend of grade 5 titanium and polished 18k pink gold. This combination not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also speaks to the duo's metalworking expertise. Inside, the movement is customized, maintaining the core specifications of the Vaucher base while showcasing Molnar Fabry's dedication to hand finishing. The open-worked dial offers a glimpse of the movement's components, featuring intricate engravings inspired by Eastern and Central European folklore on the case back. With a sub-€50,000 price point, this unique piece stands out in the market for its craftsmanship and originality, making it an appealing option for collectors seeking bespoke luxury watches.
