About this entry

60% of key specs known. Missing: movement, weight, hardening, AR coating, crown, lume.

Designed by gilding artist Marion Labbez, with a mountain on the horizon gilded in palladium in two textures: the jumping hour shows as a number in the tree, and groups of stars or the moon mark the minutes by their distance from the horizon line; no seconds. Brand specs: jump-hour "TY2709 20 jewel automatic mechanical" (the same caliber as the Continuum; no movement file, see its notes), sapphire crystal, 5 ATM, 316L steel case, 18mm black leather strap with black stitch, "medium/unisex" size (37mm in the store's tags). The text doesn't mention a coating, but every photo shows a black case and the store tags it "Colour: black", so a black finish is recorded without naming the process. The current SKU (106a) and photos show the redesigned short-lug case; lug-to-lug and thickness from the brand's current size-guide graphic shown on this page, which labels the case 32mm across against the 37mm in the tags and its own caption (see the A Perfectly Useless Afternoon 37mm notes). Release year from the store listing's first publication (August 2020).
