Since its founding in 2019, BA111OD has established itself as a rising force in contemporary Swiss watchmaking, captivating enthusiasts, collectors, and connoisseurs seeking innovation. Each creation embodies a bold vision and a deep commitment to Swiss horological expertise. Today, the brand reaffirms its dedication to transparency and artisanal excellence with the Chapter 4 Skeleton Tourbillon Ice White.
A Contemporary Vision Rooted in Craftsmanship
True to its pioneering spirit, inspired by Neuchâtel’s watchmaking tradition, BA111OD continues to push the boundaries of Swiss horology while making it more accessible. With this launch, the brand reconnects with an approach that celebrates technical mastery and the beauty of exposed mechanics. “This timepiece is a true statement of our DNA: bold design, an unembellished exposed movement, and execution that highlights the talent of our partner artisans,” explains Thomas Baillod, founder of BA111OD.
Openwork Design to Elevate Mechanical Beauty
Designed and manufactured in the Jura Arc, the cradle of Swiss watchmaking, the Chapter 4 Skeleton Tourbillon Ice White combines an openwork architecture with cutting-edge engineering. Its 40mm stainless steel case, distinguished by its signature 4 o’clock crown, showcases an open dial that reveals the intricate movement within.
The tourbillon, strategically positioned at 7 o’clock, performs its rhythmic dance, paying homage to one of the most revered complications in watchmaking. This technical masterpiece is powered by a hand-wound skeletonized movement, developed by master watchmaker Olivier Mory, offering an impressive 100-hour power reserve.
Expertise in Every Detail
Each component of the Chapter 4 Skeleton Tourbillon Ice White reflects exceptional craftsmanship and meticulous execution. Striking the perfect balance between modernity and tradition, this creation is available with four interchangeable strap options:
• Ceramic: for absolute refinement
• Black Saffiano leather: for timeless elegance
• White rubber: for a sporty-chic look
• Steel: for a bold, robust aesthetic
The Tourbillon: A Watchmaking Feat
The tourbillon remains one of horology’s most prestigious inventions. Conceived by Abraham-Louis Breguet in 1801, this mechanism compensates for the effects of gravity on movement precision. Its cage completes one rotation per minute, optimizing chronometric regularity.
