Byrne: The Reinvention of Time Indication

This GYRO DIAL complication-animation changes the watch’s appearance automatically every 24 hours or on demand. At midnight, the dial takes on a new appearance. Each watch has 4 different faces.

Byrne watches embody a bold vision of contemporary watchmaking: to transform the way we perceive and interact with time. Their uniqueness lies in a novel concept of personalized display, which evolves at the user’s whim.

At the heart of every Byrne watch is a living dial, with indexes that change according to the wearer’s mood. Thanks to an ingenious mechanism, these indexes change daily, or on command, revealing symbols, numbers or motifs chosen by their owner. This unique system allows everyone to wear a watch that truly reflects their image, combining mechanical innovation and made-to-measure aesthetics.

With Byrne, time becomes a personal and dynamic experience, where horological precision meets limitless creativity. It’s an invitation to rediscover the art of time through a resolutely modern and interactive prism.

A new mechanical model that inaugurates a new, more sophisticated and elegant permanent collection for collectors. New, smaller 38mm diameter. New case, more streamlined, lighter and slimmer. New skeletonized Manufacture Fleurier caliber 5557, featuring a winding crown at 12 o’clock while retaining the brand’s iconic display complication. New-generation dial with 4 pivoting indexes, each sculpted in three dimensions. New “metallorized” blue obtained through our in-house rhodium plating.
