Chronoswiss Space Timer Black Hole

Embrace the Darkness: Chronoswiss Embarks on a Cosmic Odyssey Beyond Light and Time with the new Space Timer Black Hole.

As pioneers in the art of watchmaking, Chronoswiss is thrilled to reveal its latest cosmic rulebreaker. The Space Timer Black Hole takes you on a journey into the darkest, most mesmerizing corners of the universe, where not even light can escape. The Black Hole becomes the newest celestial destination, following our luminary hits: the Space Timer Moonwalk, Jupiter, and the sun-drenched Space Timer Solaris.

Enter the singularity: a force so powerful it swallows entire galaxies. That's the inspiration behind the Space Timer Black Hole, a watch as mysterious and thrilling as the cosmic phenomena it's named after. The menacing mood of the watch is encapsulated in its black 44mm DLC-coated case, setting a stark canvas for the astronomical spectacle that unfolds on the dial.

Skillfully crafted in our Atelier in Lucerne, the dial is a blend of darkness and gleaming wonder. At its core is a hand-guillochéd representation of a black hole's singularity—an intricate pattern that pulls your gaze into the abyss. Surrounding this spectacle, our nonconformist watchmakers created 17 layers of nano-printing, derived from an actual NASA image of space, adding further depth and dimension to the dial. It's a visual experience that will have you contemplating the infinite.

Just above the event horizon at 6 o'clock, a titanium moon phase appears to be almost pulled into the spiraling black hole. It's a surreal vision brought to life with utmost precision and artistic mastery. When the lights go out, the dial transforms into a radiant night sky, thanks to the intense application of Super-LumiNova. Like its celestial cousins, the Space Timer Black Hole features the iconic architecture of the collection. Underneath the decentralized hour ring, the gears are exposed, revealing a spectacle that rivals the celestial bodies themselves.

Equipped with the Chronoswiss C.308 automatic movement and a 42-hour power reserve, the Space Timer stands as a testament to Chronoswiss' commitment to crafting the epitome of Swiss luxury and avant-garde innovation. In an edition limited to just 50 pieces globally, the Space Timer Black Hole is a watch for the truly adventurous—for those unafraid to journey into the unknown and explore the limits of time and space. Don't just watch time pass; engage with its deepest, darkest mysteries.
