Quick TakeTalk about making an entrance! The ReSec Hurricane isn't just telling time; it's putting on a mechanical show right there on your wrist. Forget subtle – this piece slams down with a 44mm black DLC steel case, looking like it was forged in a storm cloud. The real magic, though, is that dial. Chronoswiss went nuts with a 42-part, two-level construction. You get that awesome "open gear" hour display up top, like peering into the machine's soul, while the minutes sweep traditionally. But then, BAM, check out the retrograde seconds at 6 o'clock – snapping back every minute with satisfying precision. That hand-guilloched "Hurricane" pattern swirling across the levels? Chef's kiss. It's like the storm carved its way through the movement itself. Even the hands are sharp, Trigono-shaped things filled with lume, cutting through the controlled chaos of the dial. Strapped on with neoprene-infused leather and limited to just 50 pieces, it's pure, unadulterated mechanical theatre with a dark, modern edge. This isn't just a watch; it's a conversation starter strapped to your arm.
DescriptionThe timepiece designated CH-6925M-BKBK2 incorporates a case fabricated from stainless steel subjected to a black Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating process, enhancing surface hardness and providing a distinct matte aesthetic. This case assembly comprises 17 individual components. Its dimensions are specified as 44 millimeters in diameter and 13.35 millimeters in height, with a lug interface width of 22 millimeters accommodating the strap attachment. The overall finish applied to the case is predominantly matt, interspersed with sections exhibiting a vertical satin finish for contrast. Security and water resistance are facilitated by a screw-down case back, which features a satin finish and incorporates a flat sapphire crystal for viewing the movement. Complementing this is a screw-down matt bezel, engineered with a full thread design and side knurling for enhanced grip and operational interface. Protecting the dial is a curved sapphire crystal, treated with a double anti-reflective coating to minimize glare and maximize legibility under various lighting conditions. The construction ensures water resistance rated to 10 bar, equivalent to a static depth of 100 meters, rendering the watch suitable for surface water activities.

Powering the CH-6925M-BKBK2 is the Caliber C.301 automatic movement. This mechanical movement operates at a frequency of 4 Hz, corresponding to 28,800 alternations per hour (A/h), providing a smooth sweep for the time-indicating hands. It contains 33 jewels to minimize friction at critical points within the gear train and escapement. When fully wound, the movement offers a power reserve of approximately 42 hours. Observable finishing details include a polished pallet lever, escape wheel, and screws, alongside perlage applied to the bridges and plates. The rotor, responsible for automatic winding via wrist motion, is skeletonized, finished in black, decorated with Côtes de Genève stripes, and mounted on a ball bearing system for efficiency. The dial architecture is notably complex, involving a 42-part construction arranged across two distinct levels. The foundational level presents a galvanic black surface. Positioned above this are screwed-on skeletonized train wheel bridges and a distinct funnel-like structure framing the hour display. This multi-level arrangement also accommodates the retrograde seconds display and features cylinder-shaped indexes coated with Super-LumiNova for low-light visibility. Time indication is distributed: off-center hours are shown at the 12 o'clock position, leveraging the "open gear" aesthetic; central minutes are indicated conventionally; and retrograde seconds are displayed via an arc at the 6 o'clock position. The "Trigono" shaped hands are lacquered and incorporate Super-LumiNova inlays and tips for enhanced legibility. This model is a limited production run, restricted to only 50 units worldwide, emphasizing its exclusivity and the technically sophisticated nature of its dial design, particularly the "open gear" mechanism and retrograde seconds complication.
