The Artisans de Genève, known for their exquisite craftsmanship, have once again astounded the horology world with their latest creation, the ‘Glimmer in the Dark’ Daytona 4130. This timepiece is a testament to both artistry and innovation, drawing inspiration from vintage watchmaking while incorporating modern luminous technologies.

At the heart of this masterpiece lies a dial crafted from a singular piece of natural sapphire. Its transparency offers a captivating view into the complex world of watch mechanics, revealing intricate artistry usually hidden beneath the surface. The dial is enhanced with a luminescent coating, providing a constant, gentle glow that defines this watch’s unique character. The custom-designed automatic rotor features a hand-painted phosphorescent ‘X’ insert, echoing the watch’s luminous theme.

Every detail of this timepiece is accentuated with luminous materials that bring new life to its design. The bezel, with its vibrant and unique hue, complements the smooth surface of the watch, creating a striking visual contrast. The Super-Luminova hands, paired with 12 neon reference points on the dial, add an enchanting level of visual tension. The bezel itself is crafted from curved sapphire, incorporating newly developed neon green luminescent inserts, evoking the charm of a bygone era.

Beneath the sapphire crystal lies the skeletonized cal.4130 movement. The skeleton sub-dials on the face allow observers to admire various components of the movement, while the transparent case back offers a panoramic view. The exquisite automatic rotor further enhances the design theme with its special ‘X’ phosphorescent inlay. The combination of the sapphire dial and skeletonized movement allows light to penetrate every personalized detail, embodying the artistry of Artisans de Genève.
