Charlie Paris Watch: Initial Open Heart Day/Night Red

Pre-order: delivery mid-November

Charlie Paris Initial: an elegant, accessible watch assembled in France

The Charlie Paris Initial Open Heart Day/Night features a 40mm 316L steel case, sleek and contemporary. Its sunray smoked red dial reveals an opening that gives a glimpse of the balance wheel, blending classic design with mechanical emotion. The day/night complication completes this Initial's dial, making it as contrasting as it is elegant.

The Initial Day/Night is powered by an automatic Citizen Miyota 82S7 caliber (21 jewels, 4 Hz, ~40h power reserve, precision -20/+40 s/d), incorporating hours, minutes, a small seconds sub-dial at 4 o'clock, and a day/night indicator at 9 o'clock, with the open balance wheel visible at 7 o'clock.

The case, with a thickness of 10.2mm (including crystal) and 46mm lug-to-lug, is topped with an anti-reflective domed sapphire crystal and features a transparent screw-down case back. It is water-resistant to 3 ATM (30m).

Delivered on a leather or integrated steel strap, 20mm interchangeable without tools, with a buckle signed "Charlie".

All Initial watches are assembled in Paris by the Charlie teams and come with a 2-year warranty.
