Inspired by the audacity and legacy of classical watchmaking, the Chronoswiss Delphis Sapphire transcends conventional aesthetics with its striking sapphire blue hand-guilloché dial, setting a new standard in horological artistry. The Limited Edition of 50 is a testament to the harmonious blend of traditional craftsmanship and contemporary design crafted in the Atelier Lucerne.
In the world of luxury watches, the Delphis Sapphire stands out. The brand’s heritage is deeply rooted in extraordinary complications and daring designs, redefining the boundaries of watch design.
The Delphis Sapphire features the iconic elements that have defined one of the most striking Chronoswiss watches ever made: the original Delphis from the ’90s. The jumping hours, retrograde minutes, and the unmistakable oversized onion crown. However, it’s the sapphire blue dial that steals the spotlight, offering a mesmerizing backdrop to the intricate displays. This bold colour choice, coupled with the traditional guilloché decoration, showcases Chronoswiss‘s ability to bridge the past with the present.
Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the 17-piece stainless steel case measures 42mm in diameter and 14.5mm in height, boasting a variety of finishes that enhance its robust personality. With water-resistance up to 100 meters, the case ensures durability without compromising on style.
At the heart of the Delphis Sapphire is the new automatic Chronoswiss manufacture calibre C.6004, developed in collaboration with La Joux-Perret. With its skeletonized tungsten rotor, ruthenium-plated components, and stunning Côtes de Genève decoration, the movement not only exemplifies precision engineering and artisanal handcraft but also offers a 55-hour power reserve, ensuring that this masterpiece keeps ticking with unwavering reliability.
Limited to just 50 pieces, the Delphis Sapphire is a rare gem that embodies the essence of Chronoswiss: innovative, bold, and undeniably beautiful.
