Hypnotic Blue Dial with an Open Aperture

At the core of its striking visual appeal is the mesmerizing gradient blue dial, sunray-brushed to catch light from every angle. What sets this timepiece apart is the prominent open-balance wheel aperture positioned gracefully at 6 o’clock. Framed with meticulous detail, it allows the wearer to witness the pulsating balance spring and ruby jewels in constant motion. Complemented by silver-toned index hour markers and sweep hands, the dial delivers an exquisite balance of modern aesthetics and traditional craftsmanship.

Developed in collaboration with Sellita, this movement features 27 jewels, operates at a high frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour (4 Hz), and delivers a dependable power reserve of approximately 41 hours. The transparent sapphire exhibition caseback reveals the custom skeletonized oscillating weight and high-end finishing, making it a true collector’s piece.
