The SB04-E Winter 2026 is a 26-piece limited edition built around an architectural dial concept that interprets winter not as a colour, but as a landscape. Formed on the SB04-E platform, the stainless-steel 39.5 mm case uses alternating polished and brushed surfaces to frame a dial that has been engineered as a three-dimensional surface rather than a printed design. Water resistance is rated to 100 meters. The dial begins as a digitally constructed relief of individual snowflake geometries, transformed into metal through a bespoke embossed mold. This textured surface is then treated with a multi-layer 3D painting process, transitioning from ice-blue edges to a soft white centre beneath a thick lacquer layer that creates the depth and translucency of frozen water. Light diffuses through the lacquer rather than reflecting from it, revealing the sculpted structure below. Roman numerals are applied by pad printing using BGW9 Super-LumiNova.

Diamond-cut hands filled with BGW9 float above the surface, preserving readability without disturbing the visual stillness of the dial. The SB04-E case provides classical proportions with contemporary execution, maintaining balanced thickness for everyday wear while emphasising the dial’s luminosity. Powering the watch is a Swiss automatic La Joux-Perret movement with a 68-hour power reserve, chosen for reliability and regulated to Sartory-Billard standards so that the mechanical architecture supports the design without competing with it. Supplied on either a white rubber strap or a stainless-steel bracelet with alternating polished and brushed links, both equipped with quick-release pins, the Winter 2026 extends its icy aesthetic through considered materials and finishing. Limited to 26 pieces, available on a rubber or metal bracelet.
