Crafted from 18k rose gold, the Silhouette CX Snake is a captivating and sensuous timepiece that embodies the seductive charm of this year’s enigmatic zodiac creature. Guided by the House’s co-founder and master casemaker, Vartan Sirmakes, and inspired by the snake’s symbolism of fluidity, elegance, and transformation, this exceptional design marries innovation, artistry, and glamour. With asymmetrical curves and undulating lines, the case is a singular evolution of the Curvex CX— itself a modern reimagining of the Vanguard and the legendary Cintrée Curvex.
The creation of the Silhouette CX case defies traditional dimensional control methods, demanding meticulous craftsmanship and assembly guided by detailed 3D files to ensure mechanical strength, water resistance, and flawless functionality in its asymmetrical form. The sapphire glass, extending to the lugs and shaped into a remarkably spherical form using advanced diamond grinding and CNC techniques, showcases modern engineering at its finest.
