Merkur: A Celestial Symphony on Your Wrist


In a testament to innovation, Alexander Shorokhoff unveils the "Merkur," a captivating timepiece that transcends mere timekeeping. Named after the planet in our solar system, this extraordinary watch harmoniously blends functionality with celestial inspiration.

The "Merkur" isn't just a timepiece; it's a complete calendar, seamlessly integrating date, day, and month displays for those who seek comprehensive date information at a glance. Inspired by the crater-covered surface of the planet it's named after, the design is both practical and visually stunning.

At the heart of the dial, an orange-tipped central date hand elegantly marks the day, while the day of the week and month find their place at 12 o’clock. The lunar phase display at 6 o’clock showcases the moon's various phases, creating a mesmerizing visual journey. During a full moon, the orange "sphere" aligns precisely in the center, symbolizing the moon's 29.5-day orbit around the Earth.

The "Merkur" pays homage to the planet Mercury, drawing a parallel between its yellow-orange hue and the vibrant lunar phase display. Thoughtfully chosen colors, from the rich green to warm gold tones and vibrant orange, create a harmonious palette on the calf leather strap, date hand, and lunar phase.

Powering the "Merkur" is the automatic caliber DD9000 by Dubois Depraz, a masterpiece of craftsmanship. The hand-engraved rotor, adorned with blued screws and 25 precision jewels, embodies elegance and precision. With a power reserve of approximately 42 hours, the "Merkur" not only measures time but endures it. Limited to just 31 pieces, this model is a rare blend of celestial inspiration and meticulous craftsmanship.
