Cvstos Yachting Challenge Tourbillon

Neatly arranged along the sides of the watch case, four porthole-shaped apertures invite the spellbound onlooker to delve deep into the heart of this precious open work and discover the intricate arrangement of its 197 parts from enchanting perspectives. A true work of art, the upper bridge of the Tourbillon cage houses the anodized aluminum 3 X 20 Seconds indicator, the exclusive hallmark of the Brand. Cloaked in deep lagoon blue, it tirelessly counts off the seconds over three complementary zones. Conceived in an aesthetic sense directly inspired by nautical codes and yachting memories, the movement's reinforced bridge bears the exquisitely one-of-a-kind refinement of inlaid teak.

Crafted in platinum, the tonneau-shaped case embodies magnificently the noble art of watchmaking in a way that displays a pristine purity of line and volume. Brimming with personality, its accomplished architectural style sets it apart from the rest and firmly places the unique aesthetic face of CVSTOS within the elitist milieu of Haute Horlogerie. Water-resistant to 100 meters, the Tourbillon Yachting Club comes with a blue rubber strap, complete with a folding clasp featuring a double push-piece. Fascination reaches a peak in this limited edition of 25 pieces of the first CVSTOS model to navigate toward the exciting world of sailing and majestic yachts.

Named after the Latin word for Guardian (or Custodian), CVSTOS was founded in 2005 by CEO Sassoun Sirmakes and Chief Designer Antonio Terranova to represent a new way of preserving time while being always one step ahead of time, focusing on a distinctive cutting-edge approach to high-end watchmaking.

Sassoun Sirmakes, of Armenian ascendancy and born in Geneva (1983), has since his childhood been immersed in high watchmaking as the son of Franck Muller Watchland Groupco owner and chairman Vartan Sirmakes; he dominates every aspect of the watchmaking industry and from early on was set to create his own independent brand – a brand that could exude an avant-garde definition of the traditional art of watchmaking through ultra contemporary technique and aesthetics.

Antonio Terranova provided the look that has been defining CVSTOS since the inception of the brand; born in 1967 in the very heart of the Swiss watchmaking industry (La Chaux-de-Fonds), he has embraced watch design and worked for several top-notch brands such as Cartier, Piaget, TAG Heuer, Breitling, Ebel and Zenith – until moving on to fulfill the dream of launching his own company with Sassoun Sirmakes, inspired by the innovative aerospace and automotive industries.
