Maestro Mamba by Christophe Claret - hand-emgraved snake coil around the movement
By SENATUS Editor | 19 January 2023

Christophe Claret tames the serpentine beast at the heart of the Maestro Mamba in a 28 piece limited edition.

The sinuous, meticulously hand-engraved body of the African snake coils around the movement, its undulating hand-engraved body creates a powerful contrast between the tangy green brilliancy of its scales and the matt black shade of the movement.

Surging from the intricacies of the movement, between the hours and minutes hands, the MEMO function indicator and the sprung balance, the Mamba defies all challengers with its piercing eyes. A threatening and disturbing vision enveloping the horological mechanism with a dangerous aura of mystery.

Having decided to craft the strap in authentic green Mamba skin, Christophe Claret left no stone unturned. An obstinate quest led him to Mozambique, where the Mamba was hunted on land belonging to the owner of the largest tsavorite mine – which is why the watchmaker chose these gems to adorn the Maestro Mamba.
