Quick TakeStep into a world where mechanics meet mystique with the Chronoswiss ReSec Voodoo. This isn't just a watch; it's a statement piece dripping with dark allure, thanks to that stealthy black DLC case and those hypnotic purple accents woven through its complex heart. Forget staid design – the dial is pure theatre. You've got the hypnotic "open gear" hour display whirring away at 12, balanced by the sharp snap-back of the retrograde seconds hand at 6. It's a visual dance powered by the robust Caliber C.301 automatic movement, a workhorse finished with traditional care like perlage and Côtes de Genève, peeking through the back and via the skeletonized purple rotor. That multi-level, 42-part dial construction isn't just for show; it speaks volumes about the intricate craftsmanship involved. Paired with a hand-sewn alligator strap and built tough enough for 100 meters underwater, it blends high-concept design with real-world usability. Limited to a mere 50 pieces globally, owning the ReSec Voodoo means possessing a rare slice of horological magic, a conversation starter that's as technically fascinating as it is visually captivating.

DescriptionThis timepiece, designated Reference CH-6925M-BKPU, utilizes a multi-component case architecture comprising 17 distinct parts. The primary case material is stainless steel, enhanced with a durable black Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating for increased scratch resistance and a specific aesthetic. Dimensional specifications include a case diameter of 44 millimeters and a total height of 13.35 millimeters. Lug width for strap attachment is standardized at 22 millimeters. The case finishing incorporates a predominantly matt texture, complemented by selective areas featuring a vertical satin finish, creating subtle visual contrast. Security and water integrity are addressed through a screw-down case back, which exhibits a satin finish and incorporates a flat sapphire crystal for viewing the movement. Complementing the case back, the bezel is also a screw-down design, featuring a full thread engagement and practical side knurling for enhanced grip. This matt-finished bezel secures a curved sapphire crystal, treated with a double anti-reflective coating to minimize glare and maximize dial legibility under various lighting conditions. The overall construction ensures water resistance rated to 10 bar, equivalent to a depth of 100 meters, rendering the watch suitable for surface water activities. The limited production run of only 50 units underscores its exclusivity.

Powering the Chronoswiss Open Gear ReSec Voodoo is the Caliber C.301, a self-winding automatic mechanical movement. It 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 offers a power reserve of approximately 42 hours when fully wound. Within its architecture, the Caliber C.301 incorporates 33 jewels to minimize friction at critical points, enhancing longevity and operational efficiency. Finishing details visible through the exhibition case back include polished surfaces on the pallet lever, escape wheel, and screws, while the bridges and plates are adorned with perlage, a decorative pattern of small, overlapping circles. A notable component is the rotor, responsible for automatic winding; it is skeletonized for visual interest, treated with a purple Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) coating, and further decorated with Côtes de Genève and colimaçon patterns. It rotates on a ball bearing system for efficiency. The dial itself is a complex, 42-part assembly constructed on two distinct levels. The foundational level presents a galvanic black surface. Layered above this are screwed-on, skeletonized train wheel bridges and a distinctive funnel-like structure housing the hour display. This sophisticated dial arrangement facilitates the off-centre hour indication at the 12 o'clock position, which prominently features the "open gear" mechanism, central minute tracking, and a retrograde seconds display situated at the 6 o'clock position. Time indication is handled by lacquered hands in the "Trigono" shape, featuring Super-LumiNova inlays and tips for visibility in low light conditions. Cylinder-shaped indexes, also treated with Super-LumiNova, mark the hours. The watch is secured to the wrist via a hand-sewn alligator leather strap equipped with a folding clasp mechanism for convenience and security.
