CIGA Design has announced the latest addition to its extensive list of premium wristwatches. An exhilarating blend of the old and new, the mythological and futuristic, has come together to create the X Series Eye of Horus.
It’s available in three remarkable and captivating colour variations — Black, Rose Gold and Silver — allowing you to choose a colorway that best suits your outfit, while giving you an air of mysticism.
The Eye of Horus design incorporates Egyptian concepts of energy, power, healing, and luck, represented by the ‘X’ design and the iconic eye motif in the centre, which serves as the watch’s second hand. The watch hands and scales are luminous green, lending an air of mystique to every glance.
What makes this premium watch tick is its construction, which already makes the X Series Eye of Horus a cut above the rest. It’s a Mechanical Automatic Watch – a precise self-winding timepiece that eliminates the need for manual winding. This virtually eliminates the need for constant adjustments, allowing it to be a reliable timekeeper.
You can easily observe the inner workings of the device as well, thanks to its back-to-front transparent skeleton design. The genius design choice allows you to see into the watch and through it as well, providing a view of both the signature X-shaped skeleton and the Eye of Horus triangle that doubles as a second watch hand.
Though its front and back are constructed with glass, all of the parts are securely placed in a light, durable, bioceramic case that can withstand three atmospheres of water pressure. Typically used in high-quality prosthetics and healthcare applications, the material is also known for its impressive shock resistance.
To match its bioceramic case, the X Series Eye of Horus comes equipped with a skin-friendly silicone watch strap that is not only soft and comfortable to wear, but also strain-resistant and washable. And to cap off its core design philosophy, the timepiece features an obsidian crown that also bears the Eye of Horus, completing the concept of energy and power.
