Quick TakeOkay, let's talk about the Endorphin. This isn't just purple; it's an electric shock of violet majesty wrapped around your wrist. Chronoswiss went all out here, layering complexity like a master watchmaker playing jazz. That 42-part dial? It's insane. You've got the deep, hypnotic rhythm of the hand-guilloché base, then BAM – the sharp, industrial riff of the skeletonized bridges and that funky funnel for the hours up top. And the retrograde seconds at six? It’s like a visual drumbeat, snapping back every thirty seconds. The C.301 automatic inside keeps the whole concert running smoothly, visible through the back like a backstage pass. Even the polished bits against the satin finish on the big 44mm case feel intentional, creating this texture you just want to touch. Slap on that tough Cordura strap, and you have a piece that screams modern, intricate, and unapologetically bold. It's limited, exclusive, and frankly, a bit addictive – living up to its "Endorphin" name perfectly.

DescriptionThe timepiece designated CH-6928-PUBK1, known as the Open Gear ReSec Endorphin, incorporates a multi-component case construction. Seventeen individual parts constitute the main watch housing, which is fabricated from stainless steel subsequently treated with a purple Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) coating. This structure measures 44 millimeters in diameter and possesses a height profile of 13.35 millimeters. The case employs a combination of surface treatments, featuring sections with a high polish contrasted against areas exhibiting a vertical satin finish. A distinctive onion-shaped crown facilitates winding and setting operations. Securing the movement from the posterior is a screw-down case back, characterized by a satin finish and equipped with an integrated sapphire crystal viewing window. The anterior aspect is protected by a curved sapphire crystal, enhanced with double anti-reflective coatings to maximize legibility. This crystal is held in place by a polished screw-down bezel, notable for its full external threading and knurled side detailing. The lug width is specified at 22 millimeters, accommodating the designated strap attachment. Water resistance is rated at 10 bar, equivalent to a static depth of 100 meters, ensuring protection against water ingress during typical aquatic activities short of deep diving.

Powering the CH-6928-PUBK1 is the Chronoswiss Caliber C.301, an automatic mechanical movement. It operates at a frequency of 4 Hertz, which translates to 28,800 alternations per hour (A/h), providing a smooth sweep for the time-indicating hands. The movement integrates 33 functional jewels to minimize friction at critical points within the gear train and escapement. When fully wound, the mainspring provides a power reserve of approximately 42 hours. Finishing details on the movement components include a polished pallet lever, escape wheel, and screws. The bridges and plates are decorated with perlage, a pattern of small overlapping circles. Visible through the exhibition case back is a skeletonized rotor, coated in blue, featuring Côtes de Genève striping and mounted on an efficient ball bearing system. The dial itself is a complex assembly, consisting of 42 distinct parts arranged on two levels. The base layer showcases intricate hand-guilloché work. Positioned above this is the upper level, which secures skeletonized train wheel bridges via screws and incorporates a funnel-like structure for the hour display. This upper structure also houses the retrograde seconds indicator and cylindrical indexes filled with Super-LumiNova for low-light visibility. Time indication is unconventional: off-centre hours are displayed at the 12 o'clock position utilizing the "open gear" mechanism, central minutes are tracked conventionally, and a retrograde seconds display operates at the 6 o'clock position. The "Trigono" shaped hands are lacquered and feature Super-LumiNova inlays and tips. This model is a limited production run, restricted to only 50 units worldwide.
