Andersen Genève Eros 69

Collecting · · by Christian Bissener


Andersen Genève Eros 69 on a wrist, steel case with blue dial and striped shirt cuff

The Eros 69 is a most unusual watch. As the name suggests, its inner case can be turned completely around, so that the back of the watch becomes the dial side.

The dial shown here is discreet, in blue gold with a “tapisserie” finish, and as always at Andersen Genève it can be personalised by the client. The reverse holds the automaton with the erotic scene, which is entirely hand painted and can be personalised too. The automaton is started with a button set coaxially into the crown. Behind the crown sits the lever that turns the inner case, so that the painted side can be worn facing outwards.
