Special Edition

A conjunction of Towson’s achievements in artisanal & mechanical watchmaking. Engineered by Hartwig Balke & produced in collaboration with Jochen Benzinger. Featuring a frosted sterling silver guilloché dial with rhodium/blued-steel hands. Powered by a Swiss caliber 7750 automatic chronograph movement regulated by George Thomas. Encased in hand-finished 42mm stainless steel with domed sapphire crystal. Ref. CC100 (limited to 100 timepieces) available for purchase by request only. Inquire for price.

Featuring a heat-treated sterling silver dial with Roman numerals, rhodium-plated spear-shaped and blued steel cathedral hands, as well as a sweep second with a split tip. The guilloche pattern was hand-turned using a vintage rose engine. The stainless steel case has a diameter of 42mm and a width of 15.5mm. It features oval-shaped chronograph pushers, a high-polish bezel and a satin-finish midsection that together produce a strikingly elegant and traditional appearance. The decorated automatic movement is visible through the sapphire crystal exhibition caseback, featuring perlage, blued screws and Geneva stripes. A 25 jewel highest-grade Caliber 7750 automatic movement with Swiss-made components. Assembled, modified and decorated by master watchmakers in the TWC workshops. Regulated to five positions, ensuring daily accuracy of +/- 3 seconds. Functions include: chronograph, minute-counter at 12 o'clock, hour-counter at the 6 o'clock position, sweep-second, minute, hour, constantly rotating second on 9 o'clock position, Start/Stop at 2 o'clock, reset at 4 o'clock position. The piece is water resistant to 50m and has a strap width of 22mm.

Originally made by guilloché artist, Jochen Benzinger, as a gift for Hartwig Balke’s personal collection. The two watchmakers are lifelong collaborators from Pforzheim, Germany. Hartwig taught Benzinger how to regulate a 7750 caliber automatic movement, and Benzinger taught Hartwig how to operate a rose engine on frosted sterling silver. The MASTER CHRONOGRAPH tells this story of artistic collaboration & friendship.
