Frédéric Jouvenot launches the new addition to the Solar Deity Collection: The Helios Titanium Carbon Dial. A fascinating new chapter in mechanical sundial watchmaking.
Frédéric Jouvenot, acclaimed Master Watchmaker and co-founder of the esteemed CONCEPTO movement manufacture, proudly announces the launch of the HELIOS Titanium Carbon Dial. This latest addition to the brand’s celebrated “Solar Deity Collection” reaffirms Frédéric Jouvenot’s passion for innovation, artistic sensitivity, and cutting-edge mechanical engineering.
A MECHANICAL SUNDIAL REINVENTED BY FRÉDÉRIC JOUVENOT
At the heart of the HELIOS Titanium Carbon Dial lies an ingenious, patented 24-hour jumping cage—the very first mechanical sundial of its kind. Instead of conventional hands or discs, 12 meticulously sculpted sunbeams mark the passing hours. These sunbeams shift seamlessly between day and night indications, creating a mesmerizing interplay of light and shadow on the dial. Finally, a rotating minutes disc at the center completes the time display.
THE CARBON DIAL: A STRIKING NEW FACE
In this new iteration, the carbon dial sets the stage for the bold contrast of black DLC-treated titanium. And rose-gold-toned sunbeams. The three-dimensional structure of the dial amplifies the watch’s dynamic appearance, echoing the subtle textures and resilience of advanced materials. The result is a refined, futuristic aesthetic that stays true to Frédéric Jouvenot’s visionary approach to haute horlogerie.
“At Frédéric Jouvenot, we strive to reimagine timekeeping by returning to its earliest inspiration: the Sun itself. The HELIOS Titanium Carbon Dial is a testament to our engineering prowess, where cutting-edge micro-mechanics and precision craftsmanship converge to capture the intricate interplay of light and shadow in a modern timepiece.” – Frédéric Jouvenot’s founder.
