Andersen Genève Rising Sun jumping hour mechanism

Some details of the jumping hour mechanism of the Andersen Genève Rising Sun (see also the watch).

The watch is based on a Frédéric Piguet base movement, which receives a superior finish at the Andersen atelier: anglage, black polished screws and more. The jumping hour mechanism itself is developed and built at the atelier and is equally well finished.
