Magnin Galion Collection: Nautical Art Deco Watch

In the Galion collection, you can choose from a range of 3 dial colours: Sand, Jade and Sapphire, with a sunray effect evoking the sun's rays penetrating the surface of the sea. Our dials feature chrome-plated polished baton hour-markers that taper off at the tips to create an effect of depth. To evoke the art deco style and provide contrast, we've chosen to keep the 12 and 6.

The most distinctive feature of this dial is the seconds disc. Representing the progression of the seconds, it features a subtle matt gold tip at each numbering, reminiscent of a compass rose. A quick-correct date window is integrated at 6 o'clock. 

To dress up the whole, we have given the watch hands in the "compass" format, a reference marine instrument. There is a central seconds hand. Each hand and the seconds disc have been given a Super luminova BG W9 treatment to give them a blue glow, a reference to the wide open spaces of the ocean.

We chose to attach a brushed 316 L stainless steel bracelet and a simple folding clasp to the watch to emphasise the robustness, harmony, ergonomics and identity of our timepieces.

As for the movement, we selected the Selitta SW100a Swiss automatic calibre to bring our creations to life. Its small size, reliability and performance make it perfectly suited to our specifications. With its 25 jewels, it has a power reserve of 42 hours and beats at 28,000 vib/hour. Its oscillating weight bears our logo.

I hope this presentation and project attracts your attention. I worked on it without counting the hours... Quite funny for a passionate person you might say .

For me, combining work and passion is a real pleasure that I'd love to continue in the future.

We look forward to reading your opinions, your criticisms and your ideas....!

I wish you all a wonderful end to the day.
