In one movement Cyrus Genève incorporated two independent single-pusher chronographs. An unprecedented solution in today's highly complex watchmaking panorama, with which the brand has added another arrow to its bow.
We are talking about the Klepcys DICE (acronym for Double Independent Chronograph Evolution) in which, to simplify and make the readability of the indications immediate, each of the two chronographs plays on a different colour code. Launched for the first time in 2021, with a blue or red colour code, the company has since expanded the range of colour nuances but also materials.
If in 2022 the Lime version sported an unprecedented yellow/green look, with a bold new colour scheme that visually differentiates the elapsed times recorded by the two chronographs, this year Cyrus has pushed the design further in the latest Klepcys DICE Lime Carbon variant. The novelty is first of all the carbon fibre bezel with its unique feature: thanks to inclusions of luminescent material, it glows in the dark. A beautiful contrast to the polished and satin-finished titanium cushion case.
Moreover, for the first time, this model is offered with an integrated titanium bracelet, but is also available in the traditional version with a green Cordura strap (each version is in a limited series of 50). Otherwise, the technical characteristics remain the same. The two superimposed chronograph modules are unusually positioned on the dial side, entirely in sapphire glass to leave their architecture visible.
And then the twin crowns at 3 and 9 o'clock feature a coaxial pusher for activating the chronograph functions (the yellow or green anodised aluminium ring identifies the chronograph to be activated).
The movement used, visible both on the dial side and through the case back, is the automatic CYR718 calibre ensuring up to 60 hours of autonomy, created by Jean-François Mojon, the creative mind behind the technical marvels of Cyrus Genève. The Klepcys Dice Lime Carbon proves to be a remarkable timepiece both mechanically and aesthetically. It stands out on the watchmaking scene because it is unequalled.
