This is how we start every case for all our timepieces made in 18k gold, here is yellow gold for the AdC23. You can see three oversized rings made by casting, that correspond to the central part of the case, the bezel and the case back. With these rings and the lathe machine we make the final shape of each part. The lugs are also made by casting a little bit oversized. We make the final shape for the lugs by file. Finally we solder the lugs to the central part of the case by hand. For the crown we use a 8mm 18k gold bar and we make the complete crown with the lathe. Once this process is completed we start with the finishes (satin finish, polishing and interior diamond reflectors on the case back and the bezel). .
