From the embodiment of a legend to the rebirth of an era…
Titanic-DNA is an exclusive and unprecedented collection, inspired by the legendary ocean liner the Titanic, which went down in the North Atlantic in 1912.
Romain Jerome pays homage to the illustrious liner by providing its timepieces with a part of the legend.
The
rusted steel
bezel is the result of the extraordinary fusion between authentic steel from the wreck lying 3,840 metres under the sea, and steel supplied by the Harland & Wolff shipyards in Belfast, where the Titanic was built almost a century ago.
The hands are inspired by the Titanic’s anchor and rotate on a dial of deep black achieved using
coal
collected from the legendary wreck. The design adopted for the small seconds hand at 9 o’clock evokes the counters used on the steam engine dials.
These watchmaking creations will be limited to 2012 watches to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Titanic in 2012.
For the US the "Titanic DNA" denomination is replaced by "Made with parts of the Titanic"
