Notes

Released in 2007, the Extreme Lab 2 was a technological tour de force as the movement requires zero lubrication during its life span and featured a selector activated through the crown to select the different functions. It also featured a patented radial power indicator on the outer rim of the dial and an attractive large minute counter for the chronograph and a silicon escapement. Its last known retail price was $ 53'700.
