Description
The avant-garde spirit that generates the CVSTOS brand's creativity finds its fullest expression in this model introducing an exclusive calibre developed and crafted for CVSTOS. An ingenious illustration of the brand's firm focus on innovative watchmaking, this exceptional timepiece symbolises CVSTOS' determination to break through traditional barriers, even in its movements.A respected reference in the art of combining traditional Swiss watchmaking with radically innovative concepts, CVSTOS heralds a new style in watchmaking. Driven by perfection, this new take on Haute Horlogerie is expressed through a timepiece that meets even the highest criteria in terms of aesthetic originality and watchmaking excellence. The HM-S model offers a power reserve of 60 hours and combines strength of design with the pure sophistication of a CVS 2650 movement exclusive to CVSTOS. The bi-directional automatic winding system without reverser features an eccentric coupling-rod, a considerable time-saving device when it comes to rebuilding the power reserve.The magic persists with the movement suspended between the transparent sapphire crystal dial and the open back. This spectacular configuration presents unusual perspectives in the arrangement of its components. Always one step ahead of upcoming trends, CVSTOS deploys a strong approach characterised by a unique aesthetic code and a bold exhibition of the openwork movement's parts.The exclusive 3 X 20 Seconds indicator at 9 o'clock, the Brand's hallmark, counts off the seconds in a distinctiveway. The fascination and appeal of this model continues with the minimalist, contemporary calendar disc, governed by transparency, which travels around the movement and displays the date with absolute accuracy in an aperture at 7.30. All elements of time are represented here, overlapping in an orderly manner to organize life, and are neatly housed either within the tonneau-shaped Challenge case, with its pure, contemporary lines, or within the round Challenge-R50 case, an explosion of architectural curves, both sumptuous and masculine.Water-resistant to 100 metres, this model is available in steel, grade 2 titanium or red gold. It comes either with a bracelet in the same metal as the case, or a black rubber strap, closing with a folding clasp featuring a double push-piece.A powerful style statement from CVSTOS, the HM-S lies at the crossroads of the purest of watchmaking traditions and a new era in Haute Horlogerie, in which CVSTOS reigns supreme.
