Limited Edition to 111 pieces - Sold out!

CHPTR_Δ is the first BA111OD manufacture watch complication: a unique timepiece that represents time in a revolutionary way. 

Rather than simply rotating a hand around a central axis, the movement was designed to "roll" a satellite hour wheel around a fixed central hour wheel. When a wheel is rotated around another wheel, the trajectory described by any point on this satellite wheel is a cycloid. There are several types of cycloids: in this BA111OD chapter, the chosen cycloid is a deltoid (with a ratio of 1/3), and as a result, the trajectory described by the tip of the hour hand is... a triangle.

Created in collaboration with renowned watchmaker Olivier Mory, CHPTR_Δ's asymmetrical reading of time is a world premiere that promises to captivate and inspire anyone who seeks a new and unique way of reading time.

NON-CIRCULAR EXPERIENCE OF TIME

Developed and produced with the help of the highly renowned watchmaker from La Chaux-de-Fonds, Olivier Mory, CHPTR_Δ (pronounced Chapter Delta) brings a duality between the circular time of the minutes and the hypocycloidal time of the hours, enclosed in a triangle, in the foreground of the dial. This asymmetrical reading of time, which slows down and starts again, like a choreography, is part of another temporality, symbolizing the carousel of life.

A connected glass

Together with all models of Chapter 4, all our CHPTR_Δ models include the NFC technology in their glass. A first in the industry!

Sublime garde-temps ! L'attente en valait vraiment le coup !

Elle donne l'heure !

Après, qui a besoin d'une montre qui donne l'heure ?
Quand on est cerné d'objets qui nous rappellent qu'il est temps, que nous avons rendez-vous ; Quand le four nous dit que le poulet est cuit, a-t 'on vraiment besoin de se menotter avec un objet analogique du passé ?
Vraiment, il n'y a que les mostrophiles qui peuvent s'intéresser à cette mécanique anachronique. Pire même, ce mécanisme n'est pas normal car on l'a affabulé de rouages handicapant le fonctionnement de sa petite aiguille, ce qui pose un problème de lecture du temps au passionné précité.
Habitué aux repères cardinaux à 3h, 6h, 9h et 12h, les trois pointes du triangle à 4h, 8h, et 12h trompent l'œil alors même que le point à trajectoire deltoïde, remplaçant l'aiguille horaire est correctement positionné sur sa graduation du cadran. Non content d'être le propriétaire d'un "truc" inutile, il doit en plus réapprendre à lire l'heure !
Si vous faites partie de ceux qui ne portent pas de montre car ça laisse une trace de bronzage, réjouissez-vous, celle-ci n'existe qu'à 111exemplaires.
Pour les autres, les amateurs de couronne à 4h, de squelette, de masse oscillante, de perlage, d'anglage, de boucle déployante, et plus généralement pour les amoureux de mécanique horlogère suisse (et des mots de métier absents du dictionnaire), ben…dépêchez-vous, il n'en reste plus beaucoup ! (edit : il n'en reste plus du tout).
Et tant pis si en plus elle donne l'heure !
