{"product_id":"vincent-calabrese-baladin-wandering-jump-hour","title":"Vincent Calabrese Baladin Wandering Jump Hour","description":"\u003cp\u003eVincent Calabrese is a quiet pioneer of independent watchmaking and a co-founder of the AHCI, formed to give legitimacy and visibility to independent creators long before the category had commercial traction. He is best known for his work at Corum, where his Linear Movement evolved into the Golden Bridge, as well as for his Spatial and Flying Tourbillons.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Baladin, French for “wandering entertainer”, was created in 1988 during a financially difficult period for Calabrese, and its commercial success proved pivotal to his career. A mystery dial wandering jump hour housed in a 34mm case with bow tie lugs, it is a thoughtful blend of complication and Art Deco styling. One subtle design cue is the use of S and N in place of 6 and 9, as those numerals appear identical when inverted. For quadrant symmetry, this logic extends to 3 and 12, rendered as T and M for Midnight and Midday.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDespite its historical and mechanical importance, the Baladin remains surprisingly accessible and can still be found just under $5,000. This example includes the original box and unsigned Japanese paperwork from the original retailer.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eBrand: Vincent Calabrese\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eModel: Baladin\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: Stainless Steel\u003cbr\u003eBracelet: Aftermarket strap\u003cbr\u003eSize: 34mm\u003cbr\u003eDial: Black\u003cbr\u003eYear: N\/A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Surface scratches present.
