The Choisi Heritage collection captures the essence of a classic watch design. A form that can never fall out of fashion, the round 42 mm case design strikes a perfect balance between wearability and style. Its high detailing allows instant readability. Sophisticated yet unassuming, the Heritage Collection is a subtle reflection of enduring true values. The Choisi Heritage Docteurgraph is unlike any other chronograph watch you have ever seen. Aside from its distinctly vintage appeal in the form of rose gold applied indices and red prints, there's also one good reason (or two) why the watch is named as such--it comes with a pulsometer scale, allowing medical professionals to time the heart rate of their patients (in beats per minute). Did you notice that the chronograph pushers are also on the opposite side? This is to ensure that when worn on the left wrist (in majority of cases), they do not dig into the hands of a person performing CPR (cardio-pulmonary resuscitation). Technical Specifications Case size: 42mm Case material: Stainless steel Case back: Stainless steel Movement type: Manual winding Movement no.: FHF96 vintage caliber Power reserve: Approx 42hrs Dial: Cream dial with rose gold applied indices, red accents and pulsometer scale Glass: Sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating Water resistance: 5ATM Strap type: Leather Strap material: Calf Buckle: Stainless steel tang buckle Warranty: 1 year

Dark yet unassuming, the Choisi Heritage Pilot is as legible as it gets. Back when pilots did not have the privilege of digital instrumentation, they had to rely on their watches. That's why pilot watches are one of the easiest-to-read timepieces in the world. With a new-old-stock (NOS) FHF96 caliber, this watch is not merely a homage to the old days - it lives and breathes it. The handwound movement is the same exact caliber used in the watches issued to soldiers during WWII. Now, how's that for a conversation starter? Technical Specifications Case size: 42mm Case material: Stainless steel Case back: Sapphire exhibition caseback Movement type: Manual winding Movement no.: FHF96 Power reserve: Approx 42hrs Dial: Black aviator dial with silver hands and vintage lume Glass: Sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating Water resistance: 5ATM Strap type: Leather Strap material: Calf Buckle: Stainless steel tang buckle Warranty: 1 year

The Choisi Heritage collection captures the essence of a classic watch design. A form that can never fall out of fashion, the round 42 mm case design strikes a perfect balance between wearability and style. Its high detailing allows instant readability. Sophisticated yet unassuming, the Choisi Heritage collection is a subtle reflection of enduring true values. A good 'ol chronograph sometimes looks better without most frills. The Choisi Heritage Tachygraph is a great example of that - focusing instead on design elements that bind the watch together into a coherent package. Rose-gold applied indices and a blue tachymeter scale, used to time average speed over a fixed distance, appeal to our inner vintage nut while a workhorse Valjoux 7750 automatic chronograph caliber keeps timekeeping accurate for years to come.

Designed by Seconde/Seconde/ to celebrate 55 years of Astérix in Switzerland, the Chronofixe Cofrefor Limited Edition transforms comic-book storytelling into a clever piece of Swiss mechanical watchmaking. Created in collaboration with Romaric André and Chronofixe, the Cofrefor turns the idea of a Swiss bank vault into wearable satire - complete with a combination-lock-inspired bezel, vault-handle-style crown, and Astérix himself attempting to crack the “safe” hidden within the dial. Playful without becoming gimmicky, the Cofrefor balances humour, nostalgia, and proper horology in a way only Seconde/Seconde/ can. Inspiration & Design Inspired by the iconic Astérix in Switzerland comic released in 1970, the Cofrefor imagines Astérix in the middle of a Swiss vault heist - ear pressed to the dial while decoding the bezel like a combination lock. The concept perfectly captures Seconde/Seconde/’s signature approach to watch design: transforming familiar watch components into visual storytelling devices while preserving the integrity of the watch itself. The bi-directional bezel resembles the dial of a high-security safe, while the oversized crown references a traditional Swiss vault handle. The engraved caseback continues the narrative with the phrase: “Aussi hermétique qu’un coffre helvétique”(“As sealed as a Swiss vault.”) Every detail contributes to the joke without overwhelming the watch, resulting in a piece that feels witty rather than theatrical. Dial & Case Details The Cofrefor features a compact and versatile 37mm stainless steel case, giving it vintage-inspired proportions that wear comfortably across a wide range of wrist sizes. Its brushed finishing reinforces the industrial vault aesthetic, while the restrained monochromatic colour palette keeps the playful dial artwork balanced and surprisingly wearable. The bezel itself is one of the standout design elements - cleverly functioning visually like the rotating dial of a safe while remaining fully integrated into the overall watch design. Paired with a brushed stainless steel bracelet, the Cofrefor feels solid, understated, and distinctly Swiss despite its comic-book origins. Movement & Mechanics Beneath the playful exterior sits the trusted Sellita SW200 automatic movement. Widely respected across independent Swiss watchmaking, the SW200 is known for its reliability, serviceability, and stable long-term performance. Automatic winding means the watch is powered by the motion of the wrist, eliminating the need for batteries while delivering the tactile charm collectors appreciate in mechanical watches. This is an important distinction - the Cofrefor is not merely a novelty collaboration, but a genuine Swiss Made mechanical watch built with proper horological foundations. Bracelet & Wearability At 37mm, the Cofrefor delivers an easy everyday fit with strong vintage character. The brushed steel bracelet complements the case perfectly and keeps the watch grounded despite its highly thematic design language. Rather than demanding attention immediately, the details reveal themselves gradually - rewarding owners and fellow enthusiasts who take a closer look. It is exactly the sort of watch that sparks conversations organically. Final Impression The Chronofixe Cofrefor succeeds because it understands both comic culture and watch culture equally well. Rather than simply placing characters on a dial, Seconde/Seconde/ transforms the bezel, crown, caseback, and dial into part of a larger visual narrative. The result is clever, self-aware, and distinctly collectible. At the same time, the watch remains mechanically credible, wearable, and thoughtfully executed - something many themed watches fail to achieve. For collectors of independent watchmaking, fans of Astérix, or anyone who appreciates humour executed intelligently through design, the Cofrefor stands out as one of the more original limited editions in recent years. And appropriately for a watch inspired by a Swiss vault - once these disappear, they may remain locked away for good. Technical Specifications Limited edition: Limited edition but not numbered Case size: 37mm Case material: 316L stainless steel Case back: 316L stainless steel with Asterix engraving Movement type: Automatic Movement no.: Sellita SW200 Power reserve: Approx 41hrs Dial: Matte black dial with lumed hands and lumed Roman numerals and indices; bidirectional bezel; date window at 3 o'clock with Roman numerals Glass: Sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating Water resistance: 20ATM Strap type: Bracelet Strap material: Stainless steel Buckle: Stainless steel tang buckle Warranty: 2 years

The CIGA Design Blue Planet Gilding Black Gold watch shifts the concept into a more defined visual language. Where earlier versions emphasised form, this variant introduces contrast - using black and 24K gold to sharpen the structure of the Earth and make the passage of time more legible. It remains unconventional, but more resolved. Inspiration & Design The design continues to centre on Earth as a system in motion. Here, the addition of black creates a stronger visual foundation, allowing the gilded terrain to stand out with greater clarity. The contrast enhances both depth and readability, giving the dial a more architectural presence. It feels less like a concept piece, and more like a finished object. Dial & Case Details The dial is constructed as a three-dimensional Earth, with oceans, landforms, and terrain rendered in precise proportion. Using CNC engraving and multi-layer gilding, the surface captures both the contours and relative altitude of the landscape. Each dial is produced over 68 hours, with multiple finishing stages to achieve depth and clarity. 24K gold is applied selectively across the terrain, introducing warmth and contrast while highlighting the sculptural details of the globe. Against the darker base, the gold elements become more pronounced - reinforcing the depth and making the structure easier to read. Movement & Mechanics The automatic movement is adapted to drive the rotating Earth display. Instead of traditional hands, time is read against a fixed indicator while the globe itself rotates. This changes how time is perceived - less segmented, more continuous. The mechanics remain largely hidden, but their effect defines the entire experience. Bracelet/Strap & Wearability Despite its visual complexity, the watch wears comfortably. The case proportions remain balanced, while the darker palette makes it feel slightly more understated on the wrist compared to lighter Blue Planet variants. It carries presence, but in a more controlled way. Final Impression The CIGA Design Blue Planet Gilding Black Gold Automatic Watch refines an already unconventional concept. By introducing contrast and material depth, it makes the design more legible, more structured, and ultimately more wearable. For those drawn to the Blue Planet but looking for a stronger visual anchor, this is the most resolved execution. Technical Specifications Case size: 46mm Case material: Ceramic Case back: Sapphire exhibition caseback Movement type: Automatic Movement no.: In-house movement Power reserve: Approx 40hrs Dial: Unique dial design depicting our planet Earth on your wrist Glass: Sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating Water resistance: 3ATM Strap type: Ceramic and fluorine rubber Strap material: Black ceramic bracelet and black fluorine rubber Buckle: Deployant clasp for the bracelet and tang buckle for the rubber strap Warranty: 2 years

The CIGA Design Blue Planet Ice Age takes the same concept and softens it. Instead of strong contrast or metallic highlights, it leans into cooler tones and layered textures - creating a dial that feels calmer, but no less detailed. Time is still read through motion, but the experience is more subdued. Inspiration & Design The design draws from glacial landscapes and frozen terrain. Rather than emphasising separation between elements, the dial blends them. Land and ocean transition more gradually, creating a sense of continuity across the surface. The result is less graphic, more atmospheric - closer to a landscape than a display. Dial & Case Details The dial is constructed as a three-dimensional Earth, with terrain rendered through layered finishing and subtle tonal shifts. Unlike the Black Gold version, contrast is intentionally reduced. Details emerge through texture rather than colour, giving the dial a softer visual presence. Light plays a key role - revealing contours gradually rather than immediately. The case remains restrained, allowing the dial’s surface treatment to define the watch. Movement & Mechanics The automatic movement drives the rotating Earth display. Time is read against a fixed indicator, with the globe acting as the moving element. The motion is continuous and slow, reinforcing the overall calmness of the design. The mechanics stay in the background - the emphasis here is on surface and form. Bracelet/Strap & Wearability The softer palette makes this one of the more wearable Blue Planet variants. It integrates easily with neutral outfits and does not dominate the wrist, despite the complexity of the dial. Presence comes from detail, not contrast. Final Impression The Ice Age version offers a different entry point into the Blue Planet series. Where other versions are more expressive, this one is more restrained - focusing on texture, tone, and atmosphere. For those who appreciate subtlety over statement, it is the most understated interpretation of the concept. Technical Specifications Case size: 46mm Case material: Ceramic Case back: Sapphire exhibition caseback Movement type: Automatic Movement no.: In-house movement Power reserve: Approx 40hrs Dial: Unique dial design depicting our planet Earth on your wrist Glass: Sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating Water resistance: 3ATM Strap type: Ceramic and fluorine rubber Strap material: White ceramic bracelet and white fluorine rubber Buckle: Deployant clasp for the bracelet and tang buckle for the rubber strap Warranty: 2 years

Proportions are improved, and the overall watch feels more balanced on the wrist. It is still unconventional, but easier to wear. Inspiration & Design The design is built around a single idea - representing Earth as a system in motion. At the centre of the dial is a three-dimensional globe that rotates continuously, replacing the role of traditional hands. Time is read against a fixed indicator, turning the display into something spatial rather than flat. The case and dial are designed to support this concept, with clean geometry and controlled proportions that keep the focus on the rotating Earth. Compared to earlier executions, this version focuses on proportion and wearability. The overall result feels balanced and intentional, allowing an unconventional display to remain clear and wearable. Dial & Case Details The three-dimensional Earth remains the focal point, rotating continuously as the primary time display. Surface detailing is controlled and legible, with clear separation between elements. Compared to earlier versions, the overall presentation feels more balanced and less visually dense. The stainless steel case introduces a more familiar material, making the watch feel grounded and durable for daily use. Movement & Mechanics At the heart of the Blue Planet II is CIGA Design’s Asynchronous-Follow Movement Technology, an innovative mechanical system that reinterprets how time is displayed. Unlike traditional watches that rely on separate gears for hour and minute hands, this mechanism pairs a stationary hour dial with a dynamic minute dial on the same plane. The hour indication moves through a 30-degree arc, while the minute indication completes a 390-degree rotation. This refined mechanism builds on the concept introduced in the original Blue Planet, offering smoother interaction between the hour and minute displays while preserving the collection’s distinctive single-point time indication. Bracelet/Strap & Wearability Despite its unconventional dial design, the Blue Planet II remains comfortable and practical for everyday wear.

The CIGA Design Falcon Carbon Skeleton Watch does not rely on a traditional dial. Instead, it opens the watch completely - front to back - placing the movement at the centre of the design. The Carbon variant intensifies this by framing everything in a darker, more technical palette. Inspiration & Design The Falcon is built around the idea of tension held in place. Sharp case geometry, exposed mechanics, and open space work together to create a watch that feels alert rather than static. The design is less about symmetry and more about balance - between structure and void. This is where CIGA Design’s approach becomes clear: the watch is constructed as a system, not layered as separate elements. Dial & Case Details The 43.5mm case is defined by its open-worked lugs and balanced crown guards, giving it a distinct, skeletal frame. Surfaces are predominantly micro-sandblasted, contrasted with polished accents and chamfered edges that catch light selectively. The darker finish of the Carbon variant reinforces depth across these transitions. The bezel is built in layers, with recessed sections and raised markers forming a structured outer ring. A raised crystal adds vertical depth and draws the eye into the movement. With no traditional dial, the movement itself becomes the visual centrepiece - fully exposed and integrated into the watch’s architecture. Movement & Mechanics At its core is the self-developed Caliber CD-02. Running at 28,800 vibrations per hour with a 40-hour power reserve, the movement is designed to be seen as much as it is to perform. It is mounted within a transparent support structure that creates a floating effect - holding the movement in place while maintaining visible space around it. This reinforces the watch’s sense of openness and tension. Bracelet/Strap & Wearability The Falcon is paired with a steel H-link bracelet featuring a hidden clasp for a clean, uninterrupted profile. Despite its presence, the watch remains relatively slim at approximately 11mm including crystal. The result is a piece that wears more comfortably than its visual complexity suggests. Final Impression The Falcon Carbon is the more assertive execution. Darker, sharper, and more architectural, it emphasises structure and contrast, making the design feel more technical on the wrist.
