Frederic Jouvenot Helios Albedo & Helios Carbon

Frederic Jouvenot, a renowned name in the world of Haute Horlogerie, is proud to announce the launch of its latest creations: the Helios Albedo and Helios Carbon in an exclusive case.

The Helios Albedo and Helios Carbon exemplify the brand's commitment to innovation and style. Both models feature the brand-new 42mm Titanium case, a contemporary reinterpretation of Frederic's iconic 44mm case, offering a sleeker and more refined aesthetic. This new case design sets the stage for a series of captivating enhancements.

One of the standout features of the Helios Albedo is the mesmerizing display created by twelve black-polished micro-pyramids adorning the dial. This intricate design not only adds a touch of sophistication but also ensures exceptional legibility in all lighting conditions. The Helios Carbon, on the other hand, boasts a DLC coating and twelve micro-pyramids forged from carbon, resulting in a striking and distinctive timepiece that demands attention.

To further enhance the wearer's experience, several components of these timepieces have been meticulously redesigned. The lugs have been refined to provide a more comfortable fit, ensuring that the Helios Albedo and Helios Carbon are effortlessly worn on the wrist. The internal flange, engraved with Arabic numerals, offers an elegant touch, while the enlarged dial-opening enhances readability and captures the essence of modern design.

Frederic has also gone the extra mile to improve the visibility of the movement on the back of these timepieces, allowing watch enthusiasts to marvel at the intricate craftsmanship that lies within. Furthermore, the strap has been redesigned to ensure both comfort and style, completing the overall aesthetic of these exceptional timepieces.

The Helios Albedo and Helios Carbon are a testament to Frederic's unwavering dedication to craftsmanship and their ability to push boundaries in the watchmaking industry. With their striking designs, impeccable engineering, and attention to detail, these timepieces will undoubtedly captivate watch enthusiasts and collectors alike.
