Biver is closing the first chapter of its history with the final ten pieces of the initial fifty-piece series of the Biver Carillon Tourbillon Minute Repeater. These watches venture into new realms of elegance, honouring the intricate art of dial making with guilloch\u00e9 watch faces in Mother-of-Pearl and Black Obsidian.<\/p>\n
The Dial: The Face and Soul of a Watch<\/strong> It is the first element that catches the eye, drawing one into the intricate narrative of the watch’s craftsmanship and design. Around 1850, the Parisian tailor Chevreuil likened a suit to an idea that envelops a man\u2019s body, a perspective that resonates deeply with Jean-Claude and Pierre Biver.<\/p>\n They view a watch as an extension of the wearer’s personality, embodying desire, ambition, and conviction. As Pierre Biver states, \u201cA watch transcends mere objecthood; it is not just a collection of moving parts. It represents both an abstract vision and a concrete accomplishment. Our philosophy is to bring out the soul of each watch.\u201d<\/p>\n Honouring the Craft of Dial-Making<\/strong> The second, made of mother-of-pearl, enhances the elegant simplicity of the titanium version. Both designs feature a 42 mm diameter and a thickness of 13.70 mm.<\/p>\n The movement is the automatic JCB-001 calibre with micro-rotor winding, beating at 21,600 vibrations per hour (3Hz) and offering a 72-hour power reserve.<\/p>\n Craftsmanship and Attention to Detail<\/strong> The subtle doming effect achieved through polishing enhances the interplay of light, paying homage to historical pocket watches. The guilloch\u00e9 pattern, concentrically engraved around the tourbillon, ensures each curve is unique, resulting in a truly one-of-a-kind design.<\/p>\n Respect for Natural Materials<\/strong> Black obsidian, once used for tools and weapons, now enchants as a gemstone with its enigmatic shades, while mother-of-pearl mesmerizes with its ethereal structure and myriad reflections<\/p>\n The Hour Glass is the exclusive retailer of Biver Watches in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and Australia.<\/span><\/u><\/u><\/p>\n \n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Biver is closing the first chapter of its history with the final ten pieces of the initial fifty-piece series of the Biver Carillon Tourbillon Minute Repeater.

\nThe dial of a watch is more than just its face; it sets the tone and style, hinting at the character and story of the timepiece.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/nxtmag.tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5-Soldat_white-205x300.jpeg\")

\nFor the final ten pieces of the Carillon Tourbillon Minute Repeater, Biver has chosen to highlight the artistry of the dial maker with two distinct dial options. The first, crafted from black obsidian, creates a striking contrast with the warm rose gold case.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/nxtmag.tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/2-back-300x250.jpeg\")
