Kross Studio introduced the latest edition of its renowned KS 06 Central Floating Tourbillon, now featuring an elegant turquoise stone dial. The KS 06 Titanium Turquoise edition marks a milestone for the collection, as it is the first time a dial crafted from natural stone has been incorporated, elevating the watch’s craftsmanship and exclusivity. Limited to only 10 pieces, this stunning timepiece is a true symbol of horological artistry.
Building on the success of the KS 06 series, the Titanium Turquoise edition captivates with its natural stone dial, blending the timeless allure of turquoise with the modernity of Kross Studio’s design. The 42mm titanium case encases the open-worked dial, providing a clear view of the intricate central floating tourbillon mechanism. The turquoise stone is set on the fixed hour wheel, creating a beautiful contrast with the sleek black calfskin strap, which adds warmth and sophistication.
The core design elements of the KS 06 collection remain, including the central floating tourbillon housed under a crystal dome. The oversized sapphire crystal, treated with anti-reflective and anti-static coatings, ensures that the intricate workings of the movement are visible from all angles. The grade 5 titanium case is meticulously finished with satin-polished lugs, a time-setting pusher button, and a polished bezel and case back. The watch also features Kross Studio’s patented interchangeable strap system, allowing for both versatility and comfort.
At the heart of the KS 06 Titanium Turquoise edition is the manually wound KS 7’006 movement, consisting of 220 expertly crafted components. Its unique design arranges the key functions—winding, energy storage, regulation, and display—at the centre, maximizing space for the 120-hour power reserve. The elevated tourbillon offers an unobstructed view of its complex mechanics, and the peripheral hour display, achieved through a planetary gear system, enhances the watch’s distinctive appeal. The rhodium-plated hands, filled with Super-LumiNova®, ensure visibility even in low light.
Kross Studio’s engineers have created a novel winding system centred on the back of the case, enabling users to set the time and wind the movement effortlessly. This innovative design uses a sealing system with nearly 10 case back seals to ensure the watch’s waterproofing, further underscoring the complexity of its engineering.
Limited to just 10 pieces, the KS 06 Titanium Turquoise edition is a rare and coveted addition to any discerning watch collector’s portfolio.
