Partially openwork dial
The C by Romain Gauthier Carbonium® Edition features a sapphire dial that is partially open to the seconds mechanism and escapement line.
The seconds wheel is the main feature of this opening. In addition to its mechanical aspect, this wheel is an aesthetic symbol unique to the brand.
The partial opening of the dial also reveals the escapement line assembly with the escapement wheel, balance and its pallet. A decorative bridge on the lower part of the dial has been added, featuring a Carbonium® insert, reinforcing the DNA of this assertive timepiece.
Three-dimensional hands, index and numerals filled with Super-LuminNova
The hands are made from Grade 5 titanium and filled with Super-LumiNova for enhanced legibility. The numerals and applied hour markers made entirely of Super-Luminova, improving visibility and reinforcing the modern feel of this timepiece.
The seconds dial stars
Rather than a series of enclosed circles, the open, airy dial is made of part orthogonal lines forming vanishing points with the axes of the hands, reinforcing the notion of continuity.
Case
The Carbonium® bezel is first machined into a round shape featuring a circular bevel before six straight sides are cut into it to create 6 facets. These matte and satin finishes absorb light and add even more character to this timepiece. The same facetted design is replicated around the sapphire crystal on the back of the watch.
