Konstantin Chaykin Joker Soccer Piece Unique

Football today is more than just a game, and mechanical watches are more than just indicators of time. The Russian inventor and watchmaker Konstantin Chaykin united these two worlds with the sarcastic but quite cheerful smile of the Joker and created a collection of watches inspired by the football World Cup 2018, which was held in Russia. This year, to mark the World Cup 2022 in Qatar, Joker Soccer makes its return as one-off creation for private orders.

Joker Soccer is a real fan. In his round, moving eyes-indicators, a soccer ball is reflected; it also replaces the moon in the moon phase indicator.

A strong player in football is called the Joker. This is usually an attacker, who is sitting on the bench for a time and takes the field in the last 20-30 minutes of the game. He is full of energy, experienced and sees the game with a fresh look. The joker can change the course of the game, emerging like his card double from the sleeve of the coach. Konstantin Chaykin believes, that it makes sense to obtain your own watch forward!

The Joker's football eyes rotate thanks to a patented indication module. The watch case is made of bronze. The rim of the case is decorated with the letters of the name of a new member of the Joker’s family – Soccer. The dial of the watch is covered with colored varnish and decorated in the guilloche technique. The alligator strap has white stitching which resembles a football net.

The traditional quality of the manufactory is reflected in the high level of finishing the module's details. The platinum is polished and covered with rhodium, the bevels of platinum, the wheel bridge, the levers and the lunar disk are polished, the surfaces of the parts and the bridge wheel of the disk indicators are finished with longitudinal grinding. The circular grinding is made on the disk of the moon phase indicator and the wheels.

For the time of the World Cup people who are usually not interested in football become football fans. With the Joker Soccer on your wrist, rooting for your favorite team will be much more interesting, and the memory of this important page in the history of world sports will remain with you for life. Back in 2018, The Joker Soccer was originally released as a limited edition of 11 copies only, according to the number of players in the team. This year, Joker Soccer makes its return as one-off creation for private orders.
