Geneva Watch Days 2025: BA1110D Unveils The Chapter 8
Drawing inspiration from the refined sophistication of mid-20th century horology, Chapter 8 transforms timeless aesthetic principles into a sharply contemporary timepiece. This watch embodies refined elegance without falling into nostalgic imitation, achieving a perfect balance between classic design DNA and modern sensibilities. The Chapter 8's distinctive character emerges through its carefully considered details: crisp geometric lines, nuanced surface treatments, and meticulously balanced proportions that speak to discerning tastes. The 41mm case, crafted from premium 316L stainless steel, showcases architectural elements including a distinctive concave bezel and gracefully rounded lugs that enhance wrist presence while maintaining comfort.
Technical excellence defines every aspect of the construction. A double anti-reflective sapphire crystal provides exceptional clarity, perfectly complementing the textured sandblasted dial beneath. Luminous hands deliver outstanding legibility across all lighting conditions, while the strategically positioned crown at 4 o'clock demonstrates the thoughtful integration of ergonomic functionality with aesthetic harmony. The transparent caseback offers a window into the mechanical artistry within.
Powering this exceptional timepiece is the Swiss-manufactured Soprod P024 automatic movement, representing the pinnacle of mechanical reliability and precision. This visible heartbeat embodies pure horological tradition, connecting the wearer to centuries of Swiss watchmaking heritage. Each Chapter 8 timepiece represents a commitment to artisanal excellence, with every component imagined, designed, and meticulously hand-assembled within the brand's dedicated Neuchâtel atelier, mere steps from where the initial concept drawings first came to life. This proximity between inspiration and creation ensures that each watch maintains the authentic spirit and uncompromising quality that defines genuine Swiss watchmaking, making fine horology accessible without sacrificing the soul, substance, or precision that collectors demand.
