The Klepcys GMT Royal Purple is born, decked out in vivid purple, a colour associated with nobility and originality. Equally noble is the art of watchmaking that Cyrus Genève, with Manufacture based in Le Locle, pursues, creating masterpieces of time in keeping with the high quality standards of Swiss watchmaking and giving them a unique and unconventional stylistic identity.

A time instrument designed to be “user-friendly” and intuitive, displaying local time and home time simultaneously, Klepcys GMT Royal Purple is a trusted companion for anyone wishing to travel for business or pleasure, and are also in search of an exclusive timepiece.

The case

The Klepcys case, with its distinctive cushion shape, is made up of no less than 26 parts. With a diameter of 42 mm and a thickness of 13.9 mm, it is water-resistant to 10 ATM and is crafted from grade 5 polished/satin finished titanium, a material renowned for its hypoallergenic properties and lightness. It fits also comfortably on the wrist thanks to its well thought-out ergonomic design.

An ever-present feature are the two functional crowns, engraved with the brand's signature logo, which are surrounded by a grey rubber ring for a better grip.

While the crown at 3 o'clock winds the movement and sets the main time and the second time zone simultaneously, pressing the crown pusher at 9 o'clock moves the hand of the main time forward by one hour each time it is pressed.

The three-dimensional bezel, applied to the central body of the case, has a square base with curved sides and corners that are enhanced by polished facets and a matt satin-finished top that frames the anti-reflective sapphire crystal.

The elongated lugs surrounding the twin crowns have a polished profile that contrasts with the satin-finished parts. This combination of finishes is repeated on the case back ring that frames the transparent porthole, which is sealed by four custom-made screws bearing the Cyrus helix symbol.

The openworked 3D dial

In keeping with the Cyrus Genève style, each dial features a unique three-dimensional design. This adds depth and dynamism to the whole, giving it an exclusive and instantly recognisable brand look.

The original 3D structure of the dial, long a key feature of the Swiss Maison, is achieved with overlapping layers. A transparent, anti-reflective sapphire disc, with luminescent Arabic numerals indicating the main time, allows an unhindered view of the numerous elements of its automatic movement. Underneath is the star element: the palm-shaped upper bridge of the calibre, which is decked out in Royal Purple, obtained by ALD treatment (Atomic Layer Deposition - a vacuum atomic layer deposition technique that generates a perfectly uniform and homogeneous coating, as well as providing superior protection against corrosion). Exquisitely finished, it features circling finish with microbillé edging, alternating with opaque laser-finished matt flat rays.

Moreover this shade provide a pleasant visual contrast to the 4N gold-plated gear wheels, which the owner will be able to admire in action. On the anthracite grey minute flange, the indices at 5-minute intervals are treated with Super-LumiNova emitting blue glow.

The 24-hour Dual Time Zone complication is set in the centre of the display on a matt, opaline-grey arch edged in anthracite grey. The triangular-tipped retrograde hand indicates the home time thanks to luminescent even Arabic numerals mixed with dots.

At 6 o'clock, the light grey small seconds counter, decorated with a triangle motif, is adorned with the unique helix-shaped hand echoing the CYRUS logo. It is the same hue as the upper bridge, with a luminescent end that glows in the dark. It complements the dial in function and style.

The In-house Calibre CYR708

The Klepcys GMT Royal Purple is powered by the in-house self-winding calibre CYR708, designed by Jean-François Mojon and that can be admired through the sapphire crystal glass porthole. Its regulating organ operates at 28.800 vibrations per hour (4 Hz) and guarantees 55-hour power reserve, provided by a single winding barrel. The decoration of the bridges is refined, with hand-finished edges using the anglage technique. The NAC-treated surface is embellished with embossed rays with a brushed finish alternating with microbeaded flat rays. The combination of all these exquisite finishes contributes to pleasant lighting effects.

The openworked single-block oscillating mass with sunray decoration is adorned with the Maison’s logo and the engraved motto “The Conquest of Innovation”. It stands out in ALD-coating royal purple, the same colour featured on the dial .

Strap

This creation is completed with a grey Cordura strap with stitching matching the dial colour fastened to the wrist with a customised folding clasp.
