DC7 GREEN TITANIUM
DC7 GREEN TITANIUM
Like a return to simplicity, our third collection was imagined in resonance with the laws of nature, observed by Leonardo da Vinci who derived his Vitruvian Man from them, or by Darwin.
This constant tension between symmetry and asymmetry necessitated the creation of a new, streamlined movement, caliber H70. The models in the collection offer perfect symmetry on the 3 o’clock – 9 o’clock axis and asymmetry on the 6 o’clock – 12 o’clock axis. The three-dimensionality of the piece is accentuated by the dial’s play on levels.
This model features a deep, smoky green dial obtained from titanium anodization.
STRUCUTRE
Legibility and the play of inclined planes
The brand’s most refined model, DC7 plays with architecture and light. It combines different inclinations and finishes of components, with fluidity and subtlety, aiming for harmony and legibility. The play of colors is achieved by anodizing the titanium.
The 30° flying tourbillon appears at 12 o’clock, inclined at 3° to the case.
from the case. The entire dial is also inclined at 3° to the case, towards the crown at 6 o’clock, to offer the wearer a better viewing angle.
The circumference of the dial remains “flat”, parallel to the sapphire crystal and the case. The “gap” between the central dial and its circumference, thinner at 12 o’clock and larger at 6 o’clock, creates a subtle variation in perspective.
The sunray dial is slightly domed. The slightly curved skeletonized central hands follow the curve of the dial and are highlighted with red Swiss Super-LumiNova®.
Finally, a curved sapphire crystal protects the entire dial.
