The Dominion GMT Gold debuts a new rounded case for the Cyrus portfolio, crafted from 18ct rose gold. Measuring 42mm diameter with a height of 16.73mm it features two crowns positioned at the three and nine o’clock positions offering perfect symmetry. While the hour and minute setting, as well as the winding are carried out using the three o’clock crown, the local time hour hand is advanced incrementally through the push button on the opposite crown, so adjustment of time zones is instant and simple to do.

The dial is an elaborate three dimensional display which is comprised of a transparent sapphire ring, on which the white arabic numerals have been given a soft blue Super-LumiNova coating, complementing the five minute markings around the rehaut and the hands. Inset, the ‘home time’ is displayed in twenty-four hour format on a ring of matte opaline grey, with luminous numerals and an arrow pointer for optimal legibility of the retrograde display in all light conditions. A disc with a rotating golden three-handed helix indicates the seconds, and beneath all of this, the upper movement plate is rendered in 18ct rose gold galvanic treatment, and has been skeletonised to reveal the internal workings within.

The in-house manufacture self-winding movement is the work of Jean-François Mojon, who is renowned across the industry as one of the great technical innovators and conceptualists of fine contemporary watchmaking. Beating at a brisk 28’800 vib/hour and deriving a power reserve of 55 hours from its single barrel, the movement features anthracite NAC bridges and plates with a sunray effect radiating across their surfaces, while the skeletonised oscillating weight features engraved detailing and the Cyrus logo.

Limited to only 25 pieces, the Cyrus Klepcys Dominion GMT Gold wears on a leather strap, secured with an 18ct rose gold pin clasp.
