With its hand-grained 18-carat gold dial and in-house titanium calibre, the DC1 Titanium bridges tradition and modernity. It is both a nod to horology’s classical codes and a leap into the 21st century — a timepiece where elegance, technical ingenuity, and comfort come together in perfect balance
With its hand-grained 18-carat gold dial and in-house titanium calibre, the DC1 Titanium bridges tradition and modernity. It is both a nod to horology’s classical codes and a leap into the 21st century — a timepiece where elegance, technical ingenuity, and comfort come together in perfect balance
The DC1 Titanium is conceived around the patented “magic crown” at 6 o’clock, composed of 31 components and hidden within the case. This innovation allows for a seamless silhouette and natural comfort on the wrist. Its architecture plays on symmetry and asymmetry, balancing the inclined tourbillon at 9 o’clock with the curved opal counter for hours and minutes at 3 o’clock.
The DC1 Titanium integrates a cascade movement made entirely of titanium, a signature of David Candaux. By mastering this demanding material, known for its resistance, lightness, and biocompatibility, he ensures exceptional reliability and comfort. Both case and calibre are crafted in titanium, making this timepiece unique in the watchmaking landscape.
Every surface of the DC1 Titanium bears the mark of hand-finishing. The gold dial, grained by hand, creates depth and relief. Mirror-polished contours catch the light of the tourbillon’s 60-second revolution, while the large second counter recalls the rigor of marine chronometers. On the movement side, the exclusive Côtes du Solliat decoration pays tribute to the Vallée de Joux, and the engraved bear symbol evokes the strength and stability of its origins.
