“We managed to create a watch for people who love luxury goods, analogue products and mechanical watches, but who don't have the budget for more than, let's say a new laptop, a flagship smartphone or a digital camera.” - Francis Jacquerye, General Manager
The watch is styled after late 19th century instruments and made in austenitic stainless steel.
The mechanism is customized for the brand in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, and is decorated according to watchmaking tradition with blue screws, machine turning and Geneva stripes.
The dial is crafted in brass from a machine turned mould, and is planned for release with Roman numerals in sterling silver plating or champagne, with Arabic numerals in blue or black. The steel hands are blue tempered or rhodium plated and are inspired by steam engine telegraphs.
The dial uses a scale that allows to measure up to a dozen medical and technical units.
