Swiss watchmaker Chronoswiss has launched the Neo Digiteur Chronos, a 33-piece limited edition jump-hour timepiece with a hand-engraved 5N gold case. The rectangular watch revives a design from over 20 years ago, featuring intricate engravings of the Greek god Chronos. Production involves weeks of manual work per case.
The Neo Digiteur Chronos measures 30mm by 48mm and offers 3atm water resistance. Its case depicts Chronos alongside a scythe and hourglass, framed by a meander pattern. Chronoswiss equips it with the manual-winding C.85757 calibre, running at 21,600 vibrations per hour with a 48-hour power reserve. An elongated octagonal sapphire caseback reveals in-house guilloché bridges and wheels developed with a proprietary module. The watch pairs with a black nubuck strap and gold buckle. Stainless steel versions of similar models sold out last year at €13,800 each, suggesting a higher price for this gold edition. Chronoswiss plans to showcase evolving designs at Watches and Wonders 2026.
