Timeless Style

WATCHMAKING HERITAGE

The C-02 Heritage Karmin is part of the world of diving watches inspired by the 1960s, faithfully executed in that spirit and adapted to current standards. A steel bracelet is also available to offer a more technical alternative, in accordance with each person's use and preferences.

The pack includes:

  • Double-slot carrying case
  • Warranty card
  • Watch with FKM tropic strap

Options, such as the steel bracelet, are added to the pack.
The watch is still delivered with its original FKM strap.

TECHNICAL

Our requirement

The C-02 Héritage Karmin combines a double-domed sapphire crystal and a sapphire bezel, two technical choices that enhance its vintage inspiration while ensuring strength and durability.

CRAFTSMANSHIP

MADE IN FRANCE

The C-02 Héritage Karmin is equipped with a France Ébauches movement developed and assembled in Maîche. This Top finish version, made for Akrone, is then hand-adjusted in our watchmaking workshop in Nantes to guarantee precision, reliability and regularity. A coherent choice between a French movement and in-house technical mastery.

Technical data

HOUSING

Material: 316L Steel

Diameter: 41mm

Lug-to-lug: 47mm

Thickness: 14.5mm (12.5mm without crystal)

Double-domed sapphire crystal

Internal anti-reflective coating

Screw-down crown ensuring optimal water resistance
Scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with internal anti-reflective treatment (3 layers)

Case back:
The watch comes standard with a solid case back, ensuring 300m water resistance.
You can opt for an exhibition case back (+€25): in this case, the water resistance is 100m.
If you choose this option, both case backs are provided (the exhibition case back mounted and the solid case back unmounted).

Important:
The case back cannot be changed by you. Any external intervention voids the water resistance guarantee.
Any modifications after receipt must be carried out in our workshop.

Last pieces available. The choice of number is no longer possible: numbers are assigned randomly. Each watch is numbered XX/70.

TELESCOPE

Unidirectional sapphire bezel

120 clicks

Super-Luminova® BGW9

DIAL

Smoked and lacquered red dial

Index applied with Super-Luminova® BGW9.

The rendering of Super-LumiNova varies depending on its color.
Lighter shades allow for faster charging and provide intense, long-lasting luminosity. Darker shades, on the other hand, produce a more subtle effect with a more moderate light intensity. Proper light exposure is essential to fully activate the luminescence.

The choice of color also responds to aesthetic considerations: it is often a question of finding the right balance between luminous performance and visual harmony. For watches whose specifications require maximum nighttime readability, white Super-LumiNova is generally preferred.

In this case, if we compare the intensity of the Luminova C-03, currently the most powerful on the market and therefore equivalent to 100% according to the LumiNova classification, the Luminova BG W9 used for this version offers a luminous efficiency of approximately 95%.

MOVEMENT

France Ébauches automatic movement
Designed, machined, assembled and adjusted in France.

Exclusive finishes for Akrone:
• Personalized mass, rose gold rhodium plated
• Côtes de Genève on the bridges
• Blued screws
• Snailing

Power reserve: 44 hours
Average accuracy (set to 6 positions): from –4 to +6 seconds per day

WATERPROOFING

300m (30ATM) with a solid bottom and 100m (10ATM) with a perforated bottom

The C-02 is designed for divers and benefits from experience gained working with elite units such as customs divers, mine clearance divers, and marines. It features a screw-down crown: to ensure water resistance, it must be pushed in and then screwed down firmly to prevent any water or moisture from entering. A true operational diving watch, made in Akrone.

Warning: you must under no circumstances change the watch face or open the watch yourself.
Any modification or intervention carried out outside of our workshop will void the warranty.

Please note that a screw-on base cannot be aligned: this is inherent to this type of construction.
Do not attempt to reposition it, this could compromise the seal by altering the compression of the gasket.

No custom engraving options are available on this background.

BRACELETS

The watch comes standard with a black Tropic FKM strap.

Optionally, a steel bracelet with an adjustable deployment clasp is offered at the preferential price of €85 incl. tax (instead of €130 incl. tax if ordered separately); a red, hand-patinated leather strap made in France is also available as an option at a price of €165 incl. tax, as well as a selection of straps available in the "Straps and Accessories" section.

A video tutorial is provided for adjusting the steel bracelet. No adjustments are made remotely.

Please note that our straps are only offered in a single size, suitable for wrist circumferences from 16 to 19.5 cm.
