A fresh expression of guilloché technique sets the Curvex CX apart. Developed exclusively for this release, the pattern takes its cues from a reimagined Clous de Paris motif, with twisted, pyramidal elements giving the dial depth and movement. Light dances across its surface, refracting off each peak to produce an intricate and elegant play of reflections.

Reliable Machine

Beneath the refined aesthetics, a self-winding mechanical movement offers up to 42 hours of power reserve. Elegant though it may be, the Curvex CX is no mere adornment. It is a dependable everyday companion for those drawn to quiet luxury and finely tuned performance.
