Cofrefor Limited Edition Watch – Astérix in Switzerland 55th Anniversary | Designed by Seconde/Seconde/
Celebrate 55 years of Astérix in Switzerland with the Cofrefor Limited Edition, a playful yet masterfully crafted timepiece designed by Romaric André of Seconde/Seconde/ in collaboration with Chronofixe. This Swiss Made watch brings a comic book icon to life—Astérix himself appears mid-heist, ear to the dial, fingers decoding the bezel like a Swiss vault.
Every detail of the Cofrefor tells a story. The bi-directional bezel echoes a combination lock, while the vault-handle-shaped crown completes the safe-cracking fantasy. The engraved caseback reads: “Aussi hermétique qu’un coffre helvétique” – as sealed as a Swiss vault.
Underneath the playful design lies serious craftsmanship. Powered by the trusted Sellita SW200 automatic movement, this mechanical watch requires no battery—just the motion of the wrist. Durable, dependable, and distinctly Swiss, it offers precision timekeeping with a touch of irony.
Crafted with a 37mm stainless steel case and a brushed steel bracelet, the Cofrefor exudes understated strength. Clean lines and brushed surfaces echo the robust aesthetic of a high-security safe—an homage to Swiss banking secrecy and mechanical precision.
Whether you’re a watch enthusiast, a comic book lover, or a collector of limited editions, the Cofrefor is a bold fusion of pop culture and horology. This is Seconde/Seconde/ at their ironic best—turning dials into scenes, watches into stories.
