CIGA Design Automatic Mechanical Watch Series X Skeleton C012-WG01-W7W

Each model within this series is characterised by an open-worked dial, making the movement the focal point of the watch. The Eastern Jade model stands as a key design within the series, inspired by the smooth contours of jade in traditional Chinese culture. It adopts an organic, rounded case profile with a modern, minimalist execution. The curves represent continuity and the rhythm of life, while the skeleton dial brings a raw view of time’s inner workings. In a more robust direction, the Watch Gorilla draws on the physical strength and layered symbolism of a gorilla. Four independent spring suspension systems at the case corners provide shock resistance and enhance the watch’s durability. The design reflects inner strength, freedom, and adaptability—core ideas aimed at a younger audience.

The Eye of Horus edition introduces a mythological element, reimagining one of ancient Egypt’s most enduring symbols of protection and renewal. Here, the dial structure incorporates the eye motif within a mechanical layout, blending historical iconography with industrial design. Material experimentation reaches its peak in the Watch Machina, which employs a brightly coloured ceramic case formed through high-temperature sintering. The jelly-like texture, achieved by extensive polishing, offers both durability and visual interest. The model uses a fully automatic, two-way winding system that requires no battery. Another notable piece is the Crystal Love model, a tribute to Audrey Hepburn’s elegance, with a case design inspired by the emerald-cut Tiffany necklace she wore in Breakfast at Tiffany’s. Crafted with a 56-facet mineral crystal and a minimalist three-part structure, the watch reflects and refracts light like a gemstone, creating a refined yet technically precise aesthetic.
