Quick TakeForget subtle – the ReSec Jungle plunges you headfirst into a mechanical rainforest. That deep green, hand-guillochéd dial isn't just color; it's a backdrop for pure horological theater. You see the gears turning, the heart beating right there under the off-center hour display. Blackened bridges stand like industrial vines, supporting the exposed wheels. Then there's the star: that retrograde seconds hand sweeping across its 30-second arc at 6 o'clock before snapping back with satisfying precision. It's a constant dance, a mechanical pulse against the textured green. The 44mm steel case feels substantial, anchored by that tactile knurled bezel and onion crown, while the Cordura strap adds a touch of rugged readiness. It’s not just telling time; it’s performing it, showcasing the intricate, 42-part dial construction and the reliable C.301 automatic ticking away inside. Limited to just 50 pieces, owning this isn't just having a watch; it's possessing a slice of kinetic art with an untamed spirit.

DescriptionThe timepiece reference CH-6923-DGRBK, designated Open Gear ReSec Jungle, utilizes a robust stainless steel case construction comprising 17 individual parts. The primary case body exhibits a diameter measurement of 44 millimeters and a vertical height of 13.35 millimeters. Attachment points for the strap are configured with a standard band width of 22 millimeters. Surface treatment involves a combination of finishes; specific areas are polished to a high luster, while others receive a vertical satin finish, creating textural contrast. It features a distinctive onion-style crown for winding and setting operations. The case integrity is ensured by a screw-down case back, which incorporates a satin finish and a central sapphire crystal aperture for movement observation. Water resistance is rated at 10 bar, equivalent to a static depth of 100 meters. Protecting the dial is a curved sapphire crystal, enhanced with a double anti-reflective coating to maximize legibility. This crystal is secured by a polished, screw-down bezel characterized by a full-thread design and distinctive side knurling for improved grip and aesthetic detail. This limited production run consists of only 50 units globally.

Powering the CH-6923-DGRBK is the Chronoswiss Caliber C.301, an automatic mechanical movement. This caliber operates at a frequency of 4 Hz, which translates to 28,800 alternations per hour (A/h), providing a smooth sweep for the time-indicating hands. The movement incorporates 33 jewels to minimize friction at critical points within the gear train and escapement. When fully wound, it offers a power reserve of approximately 42 hours. Detailed finishing is evident throughout the caliber; the pallet lever, escape wheel, and visible screws are polished. Furthermore, the bridges and plates are decorated with a perlage (circular graining) pattern. A notable component is the skeletonized rotor, finished in green PVD, featuring both Côtes de Genève and Colimaçon decorative patterns and rotating smoothly on a ball bearing system. The dial itself is an exceptionally complex assembly, built from 42 distinct parts arranged on two levels. The foundational level showcases intricate hand-guilloché work. Positioned above this, the upper level contains screwed-on, skeletonized train wheel bridges and a funnel-like structure framing the hour display. Time indication includes off-center hours positioned at the 12 o'clock location (revealing the "open gear" mechanism), centrally mounted minutes, and a retrograde seconds display situated within a semicircular track at the 6 o'clock position. The "Trigono" shaped hands are lacquered and incorporate Super-LumiNova inlays and tips for low-light visibility. The watch is paired with a durable textile strap, specifically Cordura material, secured by a folding clasp mechanism.
