LEGIBLE DAY AND NIGHT

The C-03 Horizon Black takes the collection's fundamentals and pushes nocturnal readability to a higher level. Its sandwich dial incorporates a significantly increased dose of Super-Luminova BGW9 compared to the basic versions, with superluminova on all indexes, for a more intense and long-lasting light emission. Its redesigned black and white hands ensure immediate readability regardless of the light conditions.

The 41mm version will be available at the end of 2026.

From military standards

PERFECT FOR EVERYDAY USE

It was designed with the rigor of our military projects: a black dial, white markers, time that can be read instantly, nothing superfluous. Except we don't save it for special occasions. It's lightweight thanks to titanium, easy to live with, and you forget it's on your wrist from morning to night. A real field watch, one that you wear every day without thinking

RELIABLE MECHANICS

The C-03 Horizon Black features the same Soprod P024 Swiss automatic movement as the entire C-03 collection — chosen for its proven reliability and regularity. Each caliber is regulated in our workshop in Nantes, then carefully checked and adjusted to ensure precise and long-lasting operation. A workshop approach that makes a difference on every watch.

DIAL

Black sandwich dial, with indexes filled with Super-Luminova® BGW9 for exceptional legibility day and night.

The Super-LumiNova's appearance varies depending on its color.
Lighter shades allow for faster recharging and offer intense, long-lasting luminosity. Darker shades, on the other hand, produce a more discreet effect, with more moderate light intensity. Good exposure to light is essential to fully activate the luminescence.

The choice of color also depends on aesthetic considerations: it is often about finding the right balance between luminous performance and visual harmony. For watches where the specifications require maximum night legibility, white Super-LumiNova is generally preferred.

In this case, if we compare the intensity of 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 output of approximately 95%.

WATERPROOFING

Water Resistance: 100 m / 10 ATM

The C-03 is water resistant to 100 m thanks to a push-in crown designed to ensure a clean and reliable seal of the case.

Easy to handle, it guarantees the water resistance of the case and protects the movement from any intrusion of water, humidity, or external particles.

To ensure this water resistance, the crown must be fully pushed against the case. There should never be a visible gap between the crown and the case. If a gap appears, it means the crown is improperly closed.

Any crown that is improperly closed or manipulated underwater can lead to infiltration.

BRACELETS

The watch comes with a flexible and particularly durable FKM rubber strap.

Optionally, a titanium bracelet with an adjustable deployment buckle is available at the preferential price of €85 including tax (instead of €130 including tax if ordered separately), as well as a selection of straps available in the “Straps and accessories” section.

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

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