Octagonal Sports Chronograph — All Black Ceramic
43MM BLACK CERAMIC · OCTAGONAL BEZEL · CHRONOGRAPH
Black That Cannot Wear Off
Because it is not a coating. The whole watch is made of the colour.
Nearly every black watch you have handled was steel with something sprayed over it. It looks right in the shop. Then the clasp starts to silver, the bezel edges go grey, and a year in you are wearing a watch that is slowly turning back into steel.
Ceramic has nothing on top to lose. The material itself is black all the way through, so a knock exposes more of the same colour rather than the metal underneath, and the finish you buy is the finish you keep.
It is harder than steel, too — hard enough that the polish on the bevels stays sharp through the kind of daily contact that leaves a steel case looking tired.
MÉGA TAPISSERIE DIAL
A Dial You Can Read From Across The Room
The waffle grid, enlarged until it becomes texture rather than detail.
The standard octagonal watch carries a fine waffle relief that you have to lean in to see. This one runs the grid at a much larger scale, so the pattern reads as texture at conversation distance instead of disappearing into the black.
That matters more on a black dial than any other colour. Flat black swallows light and goes dead; a relief black catches an edge on every square and keeps some life in the face even in a dim room.
Three counters sit recessed into it — a step down, not a printed circle — with the date framed at three and the tachymeter track running around the outside.
How A Ceramic Case Gets Made
Why so few watches are built this way.
Powder To Block
Ceramic starts as powder, pressed and fired into a block that is harder than hardened steel. Nothing can be welded, bent or corrected afterwards.
Cut With Diamond
The octagon and its eight faces are cut with diamond tooling, because there is no other material that will cut it. Slow work, and unforgiving.
Brushed And Polished
The top of the bezel is brushed and the bevel polished to a mirror. Ceramic takes both finishes and then holds them — this is the payoff for the difficulty.
Eight Screws Seated
The pale hexagonal screws go through the bezel into the case and are turned until every head sits the same way round. One crooked screw ruins the face.
Bracelet And Check
Every bracelet link is the same ceramic, so weight and colour carry the whole way. Screw alignment, bevels and clasp action are checked before boxing.
2-Year Warranty. 30-Day Refund.
Wear it for a month. If it is not what you expected, send it back for a full refund — no conditions, no restocking fee.
Why Ceramic Is Worth The Trouble
A full ceramic chronograph from the original house is a five-figure watch that most buyers only ever see in photographs. This keeps the ceramic, the octagon, the eight screws and the Méga Tapisserie dial, and asks $999.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the black a coating that can rub off?
Is the black a coating that can rub off?
No. The case, bezel and bracelet are ceramic, and ceramic is black all the way through the material. There is no plating, so there is nothing to wear away at the edges or the clasp.
Does ceramic scratch?
Does ceramic scratch?
It is harder than stainless steel, so it resists the everyday marks that dull a steel case. It is not indestructible — a hard impact on a corner can chip ceramic where steel would dent — so treat the bezel edges with a little respect.
How does 43mm wear?
How does 43mm wear?
It is a big watch and it is meant to look like one. If you already wear 42–44mm you will be comfortable; if your usual is 38–40mm, expect it to sit wider than you are used to.
What is Méga Tapisserie?
What is Méga Tapisserie?
The same square waffle relief as the smaller octagonal watches, stamped at a much larger scale so it reads as texture from a distance instead of fine detail up close.
Does the chronograph actually run?
Does the chronograph actually run?
Yes. The pushers start, stop and reset the counters — it is a working chronograph, not decorative sub-dials.
Can I swim with it?
Can I swim with it?
No. It is rated to 30m, which covers rain and hand-washing. Keep it out of pools and the sea.
Does it need a battery?
Does it need a battery?
No. It is automatic — it winds from the motion of your wrist. Left off for a couple of days it stops, and a minute back on the wrist restarts it.
How long does delivery take?
How long does delivery take?
