Titanic-DNA
rusted steel T-oxy III Chronograph
Rust: Ultra Masculine
Romain Jerome present their interpretation of the chronograph,
as part of their Titanic-DNA collection - timepieces inspired
and created in tribute to the Titanic, the Giant of the Seas.
This model will be equipped with a new movement developed by Mr
Jacquet of Concepto for RJ, the “C21RJ21”. This movement discovers
variants of slate-gray and black and is equipped with a navy anchor
as the oscillating weight.
With its bold, powerful and imposing design, the Titanic-DNA rusted
steel T-oxy III Chronograph is a true instrument of chronometry.
With a diameter of 50mm – 53mm including the screw-in crown –
it features articulated horns and push buttons which blend perfectly
with the design of Titanic-DNA timepieces, integrating the characteristic
transverse paws.
This horological creation, proudly displaying the characteristics
of Titanic-DNA, easily finds its place in the Collection.
The dial architecture is constructed on different levels, overlaying
matt velvet finish for the back, a satin finish for the famous
transverse cross and the Roman numeral XII, snailed counters,
and numerous variations of black, with texture and hues obtained
by vaporising charcoal dust from the wreck itself.
The oxidised steel bezel is the result of an extraordinary blend
of authentic steel from the wreck lying 3840 meters under the
sea, and from the Harland & Wolff shipyard in Belfast, where the
Titanic was constructed nearly a century ago.
The design of the small chronograph counters recalls those of
steam engines; the hands are inspired by the anchor of the Titanic;
and the unbalance takes the shape of a piece from the wheelhouse
– a host of refined finishes that echo the greatest naval achievement
of the Belle Epoque.
An assertive interpretation of the traditional chronograph
with heightened physical characteristics – a symbol of force and
extravagance!
