Quick TakeWhat a showstopper this Chronoswiss ReSec is! Forget subtle – that Electric Blue CVD coating practically leaps off the wrist, demanding attention. It's like Chronoswiss decided to bottle lightning. Then you look closer, and the real magic begins. That dial isn't just a dial; it's a mechanical performance stage. The open gear hour display at 12 is pure theatre, letting you peek into the watch's soul. But the star turn? That has to be the retrograde seconds at 6 o'clock. Watching that hand sweep across its arc and snap back every minute is utterly captivating – a constant reminder of time's playful dance. It’s not just technically brilliant with its hand-guilloché and multi-level construction; it’s fun! Strapped on with that robust Hornback croc leather, secured by a folding clasp, it feels substantial yet surprisingly wearable for its 44mm size. Limited to just 50 pieces, owning one isn't just about telling time; it's about possessing a slice of kinetic art, a bold statement in blue.

DescriptionThe Chronoswiss Open Gear ReSec, reference CH-6926-BLBL, incorporates a 17-part case fabricated from stainless steel subjected to a Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) coating process, resulting in an Electric Blue finish. Dimensional analysis indicates a case diameter of 44 mm and a height of 13.35 mm. Structural integrity is enhanced by a screw-down case back, featuring a satin finish and an integrated sapphire crystal exhibition window. The bezel is also a screw-down component, fully threaded and polished, with distinctive side knurling. Protecting the dial is a curved sapphire crystal treated with a double anti-reflective coating. The case exhibits a dual finishing technique, combining polished surfaces with areas of vertical satin finish. An onion-style crown facilitates time-setting and winding operations. Lug spacing accommodates a strap width of 22 mm. Water resistance is rated at 10 bar, equivalent to a depth of 100 meters, ensuring suitability for surface water activities.

Powering the CH-6926-BLBL is the Caliber C.301 automatic movement, operating at a frequency of 4 Hz (28,800 vibrations per hour). This movement contains 33 jewels and provides a power reserve of approximately 42 hours. Internal finishing details include a polished pallet lever, escape wheel, and screws, while the bridges and plates are decorated with perlage. Visible through the case back is a skeletonized rotor, finished in blue, featuring Côtes de Genève decoration and mounted on a ball bearing system for winding efficiency. The dial architecture is notably complex, comprising 42 individual parts arranged on two levels. The lower level serves as a base and is meticulously hand-guillochéd. The upper level supports screwed-on, skeletonized train wheel bridges and incorporates a distinctive funnel-like structure for the hour indication. Time is displayed via off-center hours located at the 12 o'clock position, revealing the "open gear" mechanism, central minutes, and a retrograde seconds indicator positioned at 6 o'clock. Cylindrical indexes filled with Super-LumiNova mark the hours. The "Trigono" shaped hands are lacquered and feature Super-LumiNova inlays and tips for enhanced legibility in low light conditions. This model is strictly limited to 50 units.
