Cyrus Klepcys Conquest piece unique

Posted 6 months, 2 weeks ago


Cyrus the Great was the ancient founder of the largest empire the world had yet seen - the first Persian Empire, also known as the Achaemenid Empire. In range and scope of his achievements, Cyrus is still ranked as a soaring figure in the history of mankind, the originator of the human rights concept, and the first world ruler to be referred to as “The Great.” This mighty historic figure inspired two cousins, Julien and Laurent, to establish a brand devoted to preservation of solid and essential values. They have developed a completely unique design for their watches and collaborated with many well-known technicians and watchmakers to create pieces of exceptional quality. Their newest piece the Cyrus Klepcys Conquest is a perfect homage to Cyrus the Great and his conquest of Babylon.

The Cyrus Klepcys Conquest piece unique is a unique creation crafted in noble 18-carat pink gold. The watch case boasts 48 millimeters in diameter and features an interesting symbol on the case-back: The Achaemenid Lion putting down the Babylonian Bull. The same insignia is found on one of the earliest coins of humanity, made during the reign of Cyrus (and now in a private collection of the Cyrus Geneve). The watch is set with 84 baguette diamonds, approximately weighing 5.78 carats. What is even more impressive is that all 84 diamonds came from the same piece of stone.

The Cyrus Klepcys Conquest piece unique features a three-dimensional retrograde display mechanism where hours, minutes and seconds are indicated on a movable axis with day & night indication. The functions are propelled by Swiss-Made automatic movement built on 456 components. The movement provides 40 hours of power reserve, and allows for two additional complications: a large retrograde calendar and three-dimensional moon-phase indicator.

The Cyrus Klepcys Conquest piece unique is priced at amazing 1'000'000 CHF.
