Dial
The Panthero Jumping Hour presents the time in a minimalist, tranquil and entirely intuitive manner.

The minutes are indicated by a finely sculpted hand that does not originate from the center, but instead traces its path across the likewise off-center, superimposed minute ring. This reimagined geometry lends the dial a remarkable sense of depth, dynamic tension, and its own distinctive sense of order.
Case

From the front, it becomes clear: the case rim is extremely slim, acting only as the stage curtain for the magnificent architecture of the dial. The case also reveals a strikingly individual character in the refined finishing of its side flanks and in the exclusive, spiral-shaped crown. The interplay of polished and brushed surfaces creates a particularly harmonious overall impression. The Panthero Jumping is water-resistant to 5 bar and features a domed sapphire crystal over the dial.
Movement

The intricate workings of the movement are revealed to the eye through the exhibition glass back. The rotor’s silhouette is inspired by the outline of three interlocking fermatas. The logo and the central ring encircling the rotor bearing are designed in sophisticated anthracite. The rotor provides the watch with a power reserve of 47 hours.
