Charriol Celtica Chrono Stealth

Published by in Charriol on April 6th, 2012 | No Comments »

Firstly, our apologies for ‘going dark’ over the past few days:  travelling and writing sometimes don’t make good bed fellows.

Speaking of going dark though (tenuous link alert!), here’s the Charriol Celtica Chrono Stealth.  Appropriately partially hidden away in the image here.

Its a 44mm piece in stainless steel black or grey PVD.  There’s a sapphire crystal and water resistance to 100 meters.

Movement is a quartz Ronda Startech with calendar complication.

It features a moulded rubber bracelet with cable motifs.

Charriol Celtic XL Automatic

Published by in Charriol on March 26th, 2012 | No Comments »

Lying atop a bed of faux diamonds (ice?), this is the Charriol Celtic XL.

Love the strap – titanium cables.  Very cool!

It’s a 43mm piece with a stainless steel case. There’s a sapphire crystal, display back and water resistance to 50 meters.

The bezel features 18kt rose, white or yellow gold gadroons.

Gadroons?

Yeah, I’d never heard that either.  Apparently it means ‘A band of convex molding carved with ornamental beading or reeding’. So there you go :-)

Power comes from an automatic ETA caliber 2892-2 movement.  This has 21 jewels, beats at 28,800 vph and holds a power reserve of 42 hours.

Charriol Celtic

Published by in Charriol on April 24th, 2011 | No Comments »

[Press Release] The new CELTIC® watches, representing the fourth generation of the original model which has become a brand icon, are available in two sizes with a diameter of 26 and 38 millimetres and powered by a quartz movement.

The round cases, topped by a bezel featuring eight gadroons, are steel or two-toned with a gold PVD treatment. The cable integrated around their circumference is always in raw steel. The range also includes jewellery versions set with 32 diamonds.The hours and minutes, or hours, minutes, seconds and date, are displayed on white or black dials enlivened with Arabic or Roman numerals or hour-markers. Some variations in genuine mother-of-pearl are graced with zircon hour-markers.

Both cases are secured by a patented Charriol clasp when smaller version is fitted with a brand new five-row cabled bracelet, and the larger one with a six-row model.

In 2011, a new production process is renewing the aesthetic design of the cable bracelet : the wires made of steel (or rather from an exclusive steel and titanium alloy) are braided so as to form a series of oblique shapes, and when the cables are juxtaposed in alternating directions, they form a herringbone motif.The bracelets made in this way are more refined and more distinctive then ever. They create the effect of a noble fabric wrapped softly around the wrist. The new Celtic watches are the first collection to be adorned with such new herringbone bracelets.
