Craftsmanship

THE PURSUIT OF PERFECTION.

Every detail matters. Every component serves a purpose. Every timepiece reflects an uncompromising commitment to precision.

Precision Movement

Each calibre is assembled from up to 212 components, adjusted in five positions and regulated by hand until it keeps time within two seconds a day. The balance wheel beats 28,800 times an hour, a rhythm that is checked, then checked again, over fourteen days of testing.

Regulated in five positions

14-day chronometric testing

Up to 70-hour power reserve

Exceptional Materials

904L steel for its depth of lustre, 18k gold alloys for their warmth, Grade 5 titanium for lightness, and domed sapphire crystal treated on both faces against reflection. Materials are chosen for how they age, not only for how they shine on the first day.

Timeless Craftsmanship

Bevelled bridges, Côtes de Genève striping and mirror-polished screw heads. Hours of finishing go into surfaces most owners will only ever glimpse through the caseback, because the work is worth doing whether or not anyone sees it.

From bench to wrist

FOUR HUNDRED HOURS, ONE WATCH.

The journey of every ÉTERNEL piece through the atelier, from first sketch to final signature.

I

Design

Proportions are drawn by hand first, then refined in tenths of a millimetre until the case sits flat on the wrist.

II

Machining

Cases and bridges are cut from solid blocks, then inspected under magnification before any finishing begins.

III

Finishing

Bevelling, graining and polishing by hand. A single bridge can take a full working day.

IV

Regulation

Fourteen days of timing in five positions and three temperatures before a watch is signed and released.
