Reference only — not currently in stock

Opus 3, released at BaselWorld 2003, was an exceedingly unusual watch. While today we are used to seeing even the strangest displays of time, in 2003, this 'digital' watch was unheard of. It was conceived by Vianney Halter and it would take close to 8 years to finalize - it is said that the first examples were delivered no earlier than 2011. It was available in either rose gold or platinum. On the rectangular gold case, six porthole openings each display acolored number: blue for the hours, which are read in the upper openings on the left and right; black for the minutes, in the lower openings on the left and right; and red for the date, which is displayed vertically in the center windows. The display relies on the instant jumping of all six indicators: a one-of-a-kind technical feat. A spectacular feature is the countdown of the final 4 seconds before the minute jumps.
