Christophe Claret has been in operation for over 20 years, but only as a complication maker for other brands. Until 2009, you couldn't buy a Claret watch, but a Cartier, or a UN or a Harry Winston, etc with a Claret movement within. In 2009 he released the DualTow, a massive beast of a watch, proving the adage "just because you can doesn't mean you should. This time around he's released a more focused design, the 21 Blackjack watch. It has an entire casino, including a pair of dice in a side compartment, each 1.5mm cubes, a roulette wheel based on the automatic-winding rotor and a mechanical blackjack game on front.
The movement is a 40 jewel automatic consisting of 501 parts including 7 pairs of ceramic ball-bearing assemblies, and a striking chime to indicate when you've won. Production is limited to 21 pieces running from $200,000 to $400,000 depending on case material, which can be Titanium, Platinum or red or white gold.
