The C60 Sapphire: the difference is clear

Engineered for the deep – with a dial that aims for the stars.

You never forget the first time you see the C60 Sapphire, whether that’s the original blue version or the mysterious black edition. Both carry a dial made from translucent pure sapphire, precision machined to a thickness of less than a millimetre.

On the C60 Sapphire, the 0.6mm-thick sapphire dial is backed by a sliver of polycarbonate to give it a seductive blue shade.

For the C60 Sapphire Black, the sapphire is exposed to both a vapour of silver and carbon graphite, and one of silicon oxide. The result is a mesmerising ‘smoked’ dial just 0.8mm thick.

Both dials let you see the workings of the Swiss automatic movement from the front – and through the transparent case back.

But sapphire isn’t just beautiful to look at. It’s also highly transparent and incredibly tough – in fact, it’s the world's third-strongest mineral. So that when you put the C60 Sapphire through its paces, it won’t crack under pressure.

And as a professional-grade dive watch, it’s able to function at depths of 600m.

Which means whether you’re exploring the deep or just going for a stroll, you’ll be wearing a watch that’s in a league of its own – clearly.
