Cédric Johner may not be a household name but he is part of the first pioneer independent watchmakers having created their eponymous brand. After a few years working as a jeweler, Johner set up his workshops in Geneva and presented his first wristwatch in 1997.
His approach to watchmaking merged both his horological and jewellery background. He remained traditional with his movements in their conception and presentation but his cases were delightfully creative, unusual and playful.
To celebrate 30 years of opening his first ateliers, Johner created a 30 piece limited edition chronograph in his signature tonneau(ish) Abysse case housing a beautiful new old stock hand-wound, column-wheel Valjoux 23 chronograph.
The present lot is a prototype of this anniversary piece, whereas the movements of the production pieces feature small seeds decoration applied throughout the bridges and the main plate, using a technique that is directly derived from jewellery bead-setting, the present piece features straight line finish and polished angles. Furthermore the chronograph and seconds hands are red as opposed to silver in the production models.
The present Abysse Chronograph prototype is an exciting offering from an independent watchmaker who has found an immediately recognizable design language.
