The Case

The GENTIAN Vaultcase timepiece has a 40mm case of 316L polished stainless steel. The 316L stainless steel is highly resistant to corrosion and is hypoallergenic, making it ideal for prolonged contact with skin. The case is designed to be highly durable in it’s architecture using natural curvatures to ensure proper structure. The machining process is refined through CNC routing and complex high-end hand finishing to create the main steel components. The arched vault-like forms visible in the case ensure a remarkable and unique aesthetic finish which takes advantage of the natural reflections to create its unique form. The tightly sealed screw-down crown ensure proper water resistance of 100 metres.

The screw-in back has mineral glass crystal window, enabling the movement and brushed gold plated rotor to be admired. On the back of the case are engraved the sequential number of the timepiece, the case material, logo, case name, country of fabrication, and maximum depth of use. The water-resistance of your timepiece is guaranteed to a pressure of 10 bar, which corresponds to the hydrostatic pressure exerted by a column of water on 1 square centimetre at a depth of 100 metres under normal conditions. In these circumstances your timepiece is therefore water-resistant to a depth of about 100 metres when the crown and case back are properly screwed in place.

The Dial

GENTIAN dials are built from the same 316L steel that the case is, and finely brushed in a radial pattern to create the unique “sunburst” effect. The appled indicies and the date window are also manufactured with steel, and fitted to the dial surface by hand.
