Quick TakeForget subtle hints; the Chronoswiss ReSec Tiger roars onto the scene with unapologetic mechanical bravado. Strapped in a tough Cordura textile band, this isn't just a watch; it's a conversation starter bolted to your wrist. That 44mm steel case isn't shy, and neither is the dial – a mesmerizing, multi-layered spectacle. You've got the hand-guilloched base shimmering like captured sunlight, topped by skeletonized bridges revealing the intricate dance of the "open gear" mechanism for the hours. And then there's the star: the retrograde seconds at 6 o'clock, snapping back with satisfying precision every minute. It’s powered by the robust Cal. C.301 automatic, visible through the back, complete with its funky turquoise rotor. Limited to just 50 pieces, wearing this Tiger means you're part of an exclusive club that appreciates bold design fused with serious Swiss watchmaking chops, ready for anything down to 100 meters deep. It’s complex, cool, and utterly captivating.

DescriptionThe Chronoswiss Open Gear ReSec Tiger, reference CH-6923-ORBK, is housed within a 17-part stainless steel case measuring 44 mm in diameter and 13.35 mm in height. Its construction features a combination of finishing techniques, incorporating partly polished surfaces alongside areas with a vertical satin finish. An onion-style crown facilitates time-setting and winding operations. The case structure includes a polished screw-down bezel characterized by a full thread and side knurling, securing a curved sapphire crystal treated with a double anti-reflective coating for optimal dial legibility under various lighting conditions. Water resistance is rated at 10 bar, equivalent to a depth of 100 meters, ensured partly by the screw-down case back. This case back, exhibiting a satin finish, also incorporates a sapphire crystal window, permitting observation of the internal mechanism. Lug width is specified at 22 mm, accommodating the provided strap system.

Powering the timepiece is the automatic Caliber C.301 movement, which operates at a frequency of 4 Hz, or 28,800 alternations per hour (A/h). This movement provides a power reserve of approximately 42 hours when fully wound. It incorporates 33 jewels to minimize friction at critical points within the gear train and escapement. Finishing details on the movement components include polished pallet lever, escape wheel, and screws, complemented by perlage applied to the bridges and plates. Visible through the exhibition case back is the skeletonized rotor, distinguished by a turquoise CVD coating and adorned with a Côtes de Genève pattern; it rotates on a ball bearing system for efficient winding. The dial presentation is complex, involving a 42-part construction arranged on two distinct levels. The foundational level showcases hand-guilloché work. Positioned above this base are screwed-on skeletonized train wheel bridges and a funnel-like structure framing the hour display. This intricate arrangement also integrates the retrograde seconds indicator and cylinder-shaped indexes treated with Super-LumiNova for low-light visibility. Time indication is achieved via off-centre hours positioned at 12:00, incorporating the signature "open gear" element, central minutes, and a retrograde seconds display located at the 6:00 position. This model is a limited edition, restricted to only 50 pieces worldwide.
