The Mirage Unveiled
The Mirage’s design philosophy is a departure from the conventional, it liberates the mechanics, allowing the movement to escape the confines of a circular shape.
The large barrel, direct small second, and pocket watch style balance wheel come together to form a captivating dance of finesse and advanced performance. The absence of symmetry is not a flaw but a deliberate choice, conveying a message of uncompromising elegance and discreet luxury.

Sienna Edition: A Stroll Through Art History
The Sienna Edition pays homage to the rich history of pigments. Sienna, named after the Italian city-state of Sienna, is a pigment that transitions from yellowish brown to a reddish brown when heated. With roots tracing back to prehistoric cave art and further developed during the Renaissance, Sienna embodies the timelessness of artistic expression.

Prussian Blue Edition: A Stroke of Picasso's Blue Period
Prussian blue, a pivotal pigment born out of the accidental oxidation of iron in the 18th century, found its way into the palettes of European easel painters and Japanese artists. Later, it became synonymous with Picasso’s Blue Period, reflecting a deep and introspective hue. The Prussian Blue Edition captures this essence in a timepiece that transcends mere functionality.

Caliber CH233: Where Art and Technique Converge
The technical brilliance of the Mirage lies in its caliber, CH233. Breaking free from the constraints of a traditional circle, it houses a larger barrel, enhancing the power reserve to an impressive 60 hours. The inverted handset adds a layer of sophistication, enabling a slimmer case profile.
