Discover three spectacular Delphis novelties!

JUNE 28 2024    |    Novelties

Release of three Delphis novelties, where each piece is a work of art, reflecting Chronoswiss' dedication to quality and innovation: Discover the all new Delphis Dracula, Delphis Horizon and Delphis Dune! All of the three novelties feature unique enamel dials and are powered by the state-of-the-art Chronoswiss Manufacture Movement C.6004. While maintaining the ancient techniques, our new timepieces are at the forefront of modern watchmaking, distinctively "Modern Mechanical". Featuring the delicate complication of retrograde minutes and jumping hours, the three timepieces are more than watches; they are a symbol of timeless beauty and craftsmanship!

 

Fire Enameling: Ancient Technique for Modern Aesthetics
The fine art of enameling describes the ancient decorative technique that involves the interplay of color, light and glass particles. The technique, which exists since the 17th century, involves fusing powdered glass onto fine materials at high temperatures such as gold to create a vitreous, often colorful, coating.

The whole Delphis collection showcases Chronoswiss mastery over this age-old craft with a breathtaking enameling work - crafted in the Atelier Lucerne. The curved crescent on the upper dial as well as the ufo on the subdial are adorned with seven layers of translucent enamel in different colors, beautifully highlighting the underlying hand guilloche patterns on 18ct gold.

 

The Delphis Dracula: An Eternal Masterpiece
We are proud to introduce the Delphis Dracula, a timepiece created for eternity. Inspired by the eternal legend of a Vampire, the new Delphis, created in the Atelier in Lucerne, embodies the essence of immortality. The 18ct solid gold case and the deep red Grand Feu enamel dial symbolize the eternal bloodline and the timeless nature of the myth. The Delphis Dracula is crafted for those who appreciate the blend of art, history, and fine watchmaking.

 

The Delphis Horizon: A timepiece sent from heaven
This masterpiece features an 18ct white gold dial with a curved Guilloché half-moon and seven layers of sky-blue Grand Feu enamel. Those traditional techniques result in a dial that is both a technical marvel and a work of art, achieving a depth and richness of color that is truly heavenly. Powered by the Manufacture Movement C.6004 and limited to 50 pieces only, this timepiece exemplifies Chronoswiss' dedication to precision and its courage to consider only the sky as limit.

 

 

The Delphis Dune: A Journey Through Time and Sand
Encased in titanium and adorned with an amber-colored Grand Feu enamel dial, the Delphis Dune evokes the mystique and beauty of the desert. The enamel paint, carefully applied inside the Atelier Lucerne, builds the center stage for the stunning retrograde minute and jumping hour complication. This Limited Edition of 50 pieces only is a journey through time, capturing the spirit of exploration and discovery.
