• Made of made of grade 5 titanium that makes it the toughest watch that can withstand accelerations of over 5,000 Gs.

The engineers created a titanium balance wheel, a unique escapement and safety roller to transfer energy to the balance wheel that ensures the timepiece can endure assembly, disassembly, and exposure to shock or strong vibrations.

This partnership is one of the best collaborations of iconic brands in the world creating aesthetically and technically unique timepiece that is out of this world.

The watch dial too is radically different from anything you have ever seen.
