The Hunter Vintage Brown Gold retains the collection's signature three-layer tonneau-shaped case, constructed to create depth through precisely layered forms rather than unnecessary decoration. Every plane, cut-out and chamfer contributes to the watch's architectural identity, giving it an unmistakable presence from every angle.
The skeletonised display exposes the entire mechanical structure, allowing bridges, gears and jewels to become part of the dial itself. Rather than concealing the movement beneath a traditional face, Hunter Vintage celebrates mechanical transparency as a defining design element.
The 43mm × 48mm case is crafted from 316L stainless steel and finished using a combination of refined micro-sandblasting and polished chamfers. The Brown Gold finish responds beautifully to changing light, with matte surfaces absorbing warmth while polished edges create subtle highlights that emphasise the sculptural geometry of the case. A curved sapphire crystal protects the movement while preserving exceptional clarity and scratch resistance.
Movement & Mechanics
Powering the Hunter Vintage Brown Gold is CIGA DESIGN's self-developed CD-07 automatic calibre. Operating at 28,800 vibrations per hour, the movement features 24 jewels and provides approximately 40 hours of power reserve.
The movement is arranged in the Hunter collection's distinctive X-shaped architecture, allowing every mechanical component to remain visible throughout the dial. Refined glass micro-blasting creates a soft matte finish across the bridges, while polished chamfered edges introduce contrast and movement as light travels across the exposed surfaces.
An exclusive KE-efficient rotor concentrates its mass within a compact 120-degree arc, reducing its footprint while maintaining efficient automatic winding. Visible through the open caseback, the rotor becomes another moving element within the watch's dynamic mechanical display.
Every Hunter Vintage movement undergoes a rigorous 90-day assembly and testing process before leaving the manufacture, reflecting CIGA DESIGN's commitment to long-term reliability and precision engineering.

The CIGA DESIGN Falcon Silver Skeleton Watch keeps the same fully open construction - but presents it with more restraint.
It allows the design to breathe, with light playing a larger role across the case and movement.
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.

The 316L steel case retains its open-worked construction, with sharp lines and a strong, balanced stance.
Micro-sandblasted surfaces are paired with polished accents, creating a subtle interplay of light across the case and bezel.
The layered bezel adds depth without overwhelming the design, while the raised crystal enhances the sense of space within the watch.
The skeletonised layout allows the movement to act as both dial and visual centrepiece.
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.

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.

The CIGA DESIGN X Series Gorilla Red Stainless Steel channels strength through structure, contrast, and mechanical transparency. Combining the suspended case architecture of the X Series with vivid red accents and a stainless steel case, it delivers a bold yet balanced expression of industrial watch design.
Inspiration & Design
The X Series Gorilla draws inspiration from the physical power of the gorilla and the engineered logic of suspension systems.
Each corner of the case incorporates an independent spring suspension system, inspired by high-performance automotive engineering. This structure enhances shock resistance while visually reinforcing the watch’s mechanical identity.
Within the square case, four triangular structural elements form a stable geometric framework, supporting the suspended movement core and creating the Gorilla’s distinctive architectural silhouette.
Dial & Case Details
The watch features a double-sided skeleton construction, allowing the movement to be viewed from both the front and the caseback.
Rather than relying on a conventional dial, the time scale is integrated into the case structure itself - creating a hidden display that feels embedded within the architecture.
The stainless steel case introduces a cleaner, more neutral material base, while vivid red accents create strong visual contrast against the exposed mechanics. The result feels bold, but more grounded than coated variants.
The signature double-X motif is coated with Super-LumiNova for visibility in low-light conditions.
Movement & Mechanics
Powering the watch is CIGA Design’s in-house CD-01 automatic movement, developed specifically for the X Series.
The skeletonised architecture exposes the interaction of gears, bridges, and the oscillating balance - transforming the movement into a central part of the watch’s visual identity.
Bracelet/Strap & Wearability
Paired with a black silicone strap, the X Series Gorilla Red Stainless Steel balances durability with flexibility for everyday wear.
The curved case architecture allows the watch to sit securely on the wrist, while the stainless steel construction gives it a reassuring, solid presence.
Final Impression
The X Series Gorilla Red Stainless Steel offers one of the most balanced expressions of the collection. By combining exposed mechanics, suspension-inspired engineering, and vivid red contrast within a steel case, it feels bold, modern, and highly wearable.

The Chronoking Mecaquartz Racing Green channels the refined side of 1970s motorsport chronographs. With its deep forest-green dial and playful chronograph accents, it balances vintage racing character with modern versatility.
Confident without excess, it is a chronograph for collectors who appreciate colour — applied with restraint.
Inspiration & Design
The Chronoking Racing collection draws from the golden era of 1960s–70s racing chronographs - when timing instruments were expressive yet purposeful.
The Forest Green edition evokes the elegant hues of classic European sports cars. Its rich tone introduces warmth and personality while maintaining the disciplined geometry that defines the Chronoking line. Colour here is not loud; it is considered.
This is retro spirit refined for modern wear.
Dial & Case Details
The textured green dial provides depth and contrast, accented by vibrant chronograph details that introduce subtle energy without overwhelming the composition.
Applied luminous indices ensure strong legibility, while the balanced sub-dial layout preserves vintage symmetry. The 38mm stainless-steel case remains faithful to classic proportions, offering versatility and comfortable daily wear.
A defining feature of the Chronoking Racing series is its interchangeable tachymeter bezel system. The steel bezel, equipped with 120 clicks, can be swapped for alternative monochrome variations - blue, orange, red, black, or green - allowing the wearer to adjust the watch’s visual character.
A domed crystal enhances dimensionality, while the engraved Chronoking signature on the caseback anchors the design to its heritage.
Movement & Mechanics
Powering the Racing Green is the Swiss-assembled TMI VK63 Mecaquartz movement.
This hybrid architecture combines:
Quartz precision for timekeeping
A mechanical chronograph module that delivers a smooth sweeping central chronograph hand
The result is a chronograph that offers mechanical tactility with quartz practicality - ideal for daily use without the servicing demands of a fully mechanical chronograph.
Bracelet / Strap & Wearability
With its 38mm case size and balanced proportions, the Chronoking Racing Green wears comfortably across a wide range of wrists. The stainless-steel construction provides reassuring solidity while remaining light enough for extended wear.
The forest-green dial introduces individuality while remaining understated - making it versatile for both casual settings and more refined styling.
Final Impression
The Nivada Grenchen Chronoking Mecaquartz Racing Green is a study in controlled vibrancy. Vintage racing inspiration, modern hybrid engineering, and interchangeable versatility combine to create a chronograph that feels expressive yet grounded.
A statement piece for those who favour depth over noise.
