"Klepsis DICE" with two chronograph mechanisms

Cyrus, which specializes in unique and complicated mechanisms, has made a full-scale launch in Japan. The company is led by Jean-François Mojon, who was recognized as the "best independent watchmaker" at the Geneva Watchmaking Grand Prix in 2010. The company also includes the movement manufacturer Chronode, which he founded.
The company's signature collection is the "Klepsis." Its distinctive feature is the two crowns located on the left and right sides of the case. Each is assigned a different function, allowing for intuitive and safe operation of the complex mechanism it houses. The "Klepsis DICE" features two chronograph mechanisms in one watch. There is a chronograph second hand in the center and a 30-minute counter at the 3 o'clock position, both of which are fitted with a red hand starting at 12 o'clock and a blue hand starting at 6 o'clock. When the red crown at 3 o'clock is pressed, the red hand begins timing, and when the blue crown at 9 o'clock is pressed, the blue hand begins timing.
The movement of this watch places the chronograph mechanism on the dial side. This not only provides a spacious layout, but also, combined with the openworked dial, allows you to observe the movement of the column wheel and lever while taking measurements. The caseband and bezel are made of lightweight grade 5 titanium. Although the case has a voluminous feel, the incorporation of a matte finish on some of the sides gives it a three-dimensional appearance.
The company's watchmaking focuses on elevating watches to works of art, rather than simply timekeeping. When you watch this film, you can't help but feel the passion for people's wisdom and originality.
