The DC1, launched in 2017, marked the beginning of the DAVID CANDAUX brand, defying contemporary trends with its innovative design and incorporation of advanced technologies. Its unique features include an asymmetrical case resembling a bassinée and a retractable “Magic Crown” at 6 o’clock. The DC1 collection introduced several groundbreaking elements, such as an all-titanium movement requiring novel manufacturing techniques and a 30-degree inclined tourbillon for enhanced precision. The latest addition to the collection, presented in April 2024 in Geneva, is crafted from titanium, embodying the brand’s commitment to simplicity, ergonomics, and wearer comfort. This timepiece serves as a tribute to David Candaux’s father, a master of complications, and to his mentor, Philippe Dufour, in the esteemed AHCI.
