VC bought the movement from F Piguet....
The movement comes all set to tell the hours, minutes, seconds, and date. VC in its workshops added the complications (the module) for second time zone and regulator layout, and made the adjustments so that the movement keeps chronometer standards.

HI, Is the movement in this piece an in-house VC movement? Thanks in advance.
While the module for....
dual time and the regulator layout is VC's, the movement is based on the the Piguet 1150. Bill
Thanks. When you say module
you mean?? And when you say based on Piguet meaning it is still made in-house by VC but copying the Piguet movement or movement is bought from piguet. Sorry. Still new at this.
Dino below makes a good point....
there are two Dual Time watches in VC's current lineup. One is the Matle Dual Time Regulator, which I had assumed you were talking about, and which uses the Piguet movement: There is also the Malte Tonneau Dual Time watch, which is based on a JLC movement...
Thanks Bill. Of the 2, I'm more
inclined towards the regulateur model and in RG. Have you had any issues with yours? Thanks again for sharing.
