Eclipse II

Following the overwhelming reception of the first Eclipse, Beda’a presents an unprecedented creation, an evolution tellingly named Eclipse II.

At its heart beats a movement with a specifically designed module that uniquely embodies the spirit of Beda’a, marking a watershed moment for the fledgling Maison. Eclipse II opens the second chapter, deepening the celestial narrative: a horological tribute to the cosmos that reminds us that timekeeping was born from humanity’s fascination with the stars.

Design remains paramount. The timepiece orchestrates a perfect dialogue between linear precision and orbital grace.

The Eclipse II movement was developed with specialist workshop Dubois Depraz. A jump hour movement with a distinct singular vertical axis that connects three elements: the off-center hours and minutes at twelve, an independent small seconds display, and a crown positioned at six o’clock – a bold departure from convention in Haute Horlogerie, yet intrinsic to the commitment of Beda’a to pure alignment.

Within the round case – itself a departure for a house known for its shaped collections – two seamlessly integrated dials form a majestic figure-eight. Symmetrical crescents, finished with a distinctive linear motif, challenge Swiss tradition.

The dial itself becomes a celestial canvas: Polished and satin-finished cream motifs capture sunlight in motion; Aventurine hour and minute counters mirror a star-strewn night sky; and the spear-shaped small seconds hand at 6 o’clock, gliding over a deeply textured circular satin counter, evokes the windswept sands of Qatar’s majestic deserts.

The dreamlike vastness of Doha’s great deserts is never far...

Eclipse II is Beda’a’s vision of time itself: precise yet poetic, technical yet transcendent. It doesn’t just tell time; it tells a story...
