Greubel Forsey Redefines Haute Horlogerie with the New GMT Balancier Convexe

JUNE 05 2025    |    Novelties

Greubel Forsey unveils its new GMT Balancier Convexe. As the Earth takes centre stage within a newly reimagined amphitheatre, the hours, minutes, seconds, second time zone, and universal time indications become both companions and spectators to its quiet revolution.

The new GMT Balancier Convexe replaces its predecessor entirely – not as a variation, but as a complete reinterpretation. With a redesigned case, an integrated power reserve, and enhanced ergonomics, it becomes the purest expression of our GMT complication to date – and the only GMT model in our current collection.

A refined evolution
– Titanium Convexe case now more compact at 42.90 mm for improved wearability.
– New 72-hour power reserve indicator seamlessly integrated into the dial.

Technical enhancements
– 496 components, 73 more than its predecessor.
– Inclined escapement suspended beneath polished steel bridge.
– Real-time rotating globe in layered amphitheatre.
– Sapphire disc on caseback with 24 cities, La Chaux-de-Fonds replaces Paris.

Exclusivity
– Limited to 22 pieces worldwide.

Chronoswiss presents the ReSec Snake: A Venomous Twist on Modern Mechanical

Known for bold evolutions of mechanical wristwatches and daring designs, Chronoswiss unveils its latest creature: the ReSec Snake. Slithering between heritage and rebellion, this timepiece is a hypnotic blend of color, contrast, and kinetic energy — proof that modern mechanical watchmaking still has a few fangs to bear.

The Snake’s Bite

The ReSec Snake coils into view within a 42mm titanium case, coated with a mesmerizing color-changing PVD-coating that shifts from emerald green to turquoise, depending on the light. It’s not just a case — it’s iridescent armor, capturing the reptilian allure of a serpent in motion. Paired with a contrasting white rubber strap, the Snake wraps around the wrist with smooth, tactile elegance.

But the true venom lies beneath the sapphire crystal. A green CVD-coated dial, hand-guillochéd in the Lucerne Atelier, pulses with depth and hypnotic texture. It’s a dial that doesn’t just tell time — it seduces it.

Take a closer look, and the architecture reveals itself: the iconic 3D regulator layout of the ReSec series slithers across the dial, framed by green hour and minute rings and a retrograde second display, like the flick of a serpent’s tongue. Underneath, the exposed gear train glimmers in contrasting tones — a mechanical exoskeleton that moves with silent precision.

Fangs Beneath the Surface

Powering this cold-blooded beauty is the Chronoswiss Manufacture Caliber C.6005, featuring a 55-hour power reserve, ruthenium-plated finishing, and a radial Côtes de Genève motif. It’s mechanical watchmaking at its sharpest: sleek, silent, and engineered to strike.

Limited. Lethal.

Only 100 pieces of the ReSec Snake will ever exist — a rare breed for collectors with a taste for the untamed. The ReSec Snake is a statement: of daring, of detail, and of defiance — proving once again that at Chronoswiss, we don’t follow rules. We shed them.
