The Firshire models are known for their clean, pure design with a multitude of stunning details. The timepieces come in round or tonneau cases; this "FIRSHIRE 1937" from a limited edition has a tonneau-shaped movement dating from 1937 and was reworked by Paul Picot, with a sophisticated power reserve indication added as an extra touch.
