01 SILICA
A 5-gram titanium flying tourbillon inside a two-piece quartz composite case — seamless across the face and flanks. 25.02 grams on the wrist. No screws in sight, and the case lightened wherever the engineering allowed.
Most watches are assembled from many parts. 01 SILICA's upper case is grown from a single block. The top bezel and the case middle are not two parts joined together — they're one seamless piece of watch-grade quartz composite, machined until every seam, every screw hole, every visible compromise disappears from the face and flanks. A separate caseback frame closes it from below, secured entirely by hidden titanium hardware — two pieces total, with nothing visible where they meet.
What's left holds a 5-gram titanium flying tourbillon, visible through two sapphires, double anti-reflective coated for perfect visibility of the mechanism — inside a case that weighs 23.02 grams — 25.02 with a featherweight 2-gram Dyneema strap on your wrist. This is a limited edition of 50 pieces. It exists to prove what the atelier can build, and to open the door to what comes next.
25.02 grams on the wrist.
Nothing more than necessary.
Five decisions that
define the object.
Two-piece case, seamless top
The top bezel and case middle are machined as one continuous block — a single seamless surface across the face and flanks. A separate caseback frame closes it from below, secured by hidden titanium hardware.
Every case across the entire NR series — every model, every edition — comes from a single specialist manufacturer.
Hidden fixation
Every screw lives inside the case. Titanium capsules are bonded into blind wells and locked from the caseback, so the face and flanks stay untouched.
Flying tourbillon — 5-gram titanium
A custom flying tourbillon caliber, cut entirely from Grade 5 titanium at 5 grams — an ultra-thin 2.80mm movement (3.50mm including the 0.70mm flying tourbillon cage), visible from both sides through flat sapphire.
Clamping rehaut with floating columns
A skeletonized rehaut built from four sectors, each carrying its own index well, plus four further columns suspended separately on guide rails — locked in place with mirror-polished black anglage. The floating columns and the hands are cut from Aluminium-Lithium.
Super-LumiNova, embedded
The glow isn't painted on — it's poured directly into the case body and into the base of each hour well, so the light reads as part of the material, not an applied layer.
One neutral body.
Glow, crown, lume. The first editions.
The opening editions of the 50-piece run. Every edition shares the same neutral grey quartz composite body and speaks through three cosmetic accents, not case construction: the tinted rehaut, the crown, and the lume at the base of the hour wells. Further editions will be revealed, one at a time.
Every case shown below — across every edition — comes from the same single case manufacturer as the entire NR series.
02 CARBON LIGHT
The record attempt. Built to be among the lightest tourbillons ever put on a wrist.
Where 01 SILICA proved the seams could disappear, 02 CARBON LIGHT removes what's left — one continuous carbon canister, no spring bars, no screws anywhere on the piece.
01 SILICA: an edition of fifty.
Considered one client at a time.
01 SILICA was built as a proof of concept — for what one atelier, working without compromise, can put on a wrist. Each of the 50 01 SILICA pieces, and every 02 CARBON LIGHT, is discussed individually, by appointment.
