SB07 AVENTURINE

Representing an exciting new collection for this acclaimed young independent watchmaking company, the Satory Billard SB07 Aventurine offers a high degree of personalisation to the client, with a myriad of possibilities to enable a truly bespoke experience. Boasting a dial arrangement of natural stone, the Sartory Billard SB07 Aventurine enjoys the advantage of a precision high end La Joux-Perret automatic movement, and its beautifully executed integrated link bracelet ensures that the piece has all the requisites demanded of a contemporary daily wear sports timepiece.

The visual highlight of the watch is its complex dial arrangement which offers the client an opportunity to co-create with Satory Billard to create their own unique timepiece. Available options include Titanium, Guilloché, or Stone in various colours or finishes, and a combination of indices and baton markers and numeral options of Roman, European, Indian Arabic or Breguet, with each choice adding significant personalisation to their watch. For the Satory Billard SB07 Aventurine, model, the dial is executed using natural aventurine whose shimmering surface is abound with subtle sparkles which reflect the light with every movement of the wrist. At the dial edge the minute track has a skeletonisation aspect and is pad printed on a sapphire crystal disc on which a combination of baton and ‘Y’ markers and arabic numerals are applied, and with the addition of SuperLuminova on the hands and indices, readability is excellent, even in low light conditions.

Paired with an integrated bracelet, the steel casing of the watch measures 40mm across with a height of 10.65mm. Both elements are impeccably finished with contrasting polished and brushed finishes while recesses in the case accentuate the sleek profile of the watch. Durable yet elegant it is sealed for a water resistance of up to 100m, lending itself perfectly to sporting activities.

Inside, the automatic G100 by La Joux-Perret, has an impressive power reserve of 68 hours. Viewable through the sapphire crystal caseback, the unique calibre arrangement displays a full ‘mysterious’ sapphire rotor with an exquisite fluted décor, rendered in Grade 5 titanium and colour-toned to complement the dial tone.

An outstanding example which is noteworthy in its technical and design presentation and which provides a unique opportunity for personalisation, the Satory Billard SB07 Aventurine comes presented with an additional integrated silicone strap.

Prices for bespoke versions of the SB07 vary on customer specifications, but start at £6,700 excluding VAT.
