As part of the link 50th link anniversary of its watch ambassador, the Manufacture in Le Brassus is unveiling a timepiece designed to mesmerize the eye link by featuring a beating heart on a vibrant purple background.

The Pelagos 39 is the downsized version of the original, designed to reach link a wider audience. It dials back link some of the specs: it now has 200 meters of water resistance (still more than link enough), no HeV, no self-adjusting sprung clasp, and less of the ultra-matte finish.

I certainly couldn't capture all the watches – in link fact, some only came out of their cases for a few link minutes – but link I did my best. With that in mind, it's my pleasure to bring you inside one of the wildest collector gatherings in the world.

I don't like to speak about wait lists Jacques told me. "I think they're too pretentious. I will say that yes for anything of quality sometimes you have to wait. It's the same in life. I was waiting maybe 20 years after my maturity to find the perfect wife link but I was not on link a waiting list. But with De Bethune I think it's manageable that in one year link maybe for certain in two years you'll have a watch."
