Chapitre 3.7 - Midnight Mauve Watch

The Watch

Launched in 2019, BA111OD is a watchmaking company built on innovation and community, with customers actively shaping the brand's direction. It offers high-performance Swiss timepieces with striking designs and fascinating complications. Always pushing for perfection, the brand presents the Chapitre 3.7 - Midnight Mauve Watch, designed to suit both men's and women's wrists and equipped with two connected NFC chips - one to store your virtual business card, the other to give direct access to your BA111OD boutique. Beautifully proportioned, the case measures 42 mm in diameter and 10.65 mm thick, allowing it to slide comfortably under any sleeve. Crafted from 316L stainless steel for strength and longevity, it is enhanced by a black PVD treatment. A fine satin finish combined with polished lines gives it a timeless look, perfectly in tune with its darker tone and clean, round silhouette. The case features a domed sapphire crystal that lends the model a more classic feel while effectively protecting the dial from scratches. Its double anti-reflective coating ensures excellent legibility at a glance. The crown, positioned at 4 o'clock, adds a sophisticated touch while serving as the key element for setting the hands - ridged and engraved with the brand logo, it too is black, ensuring easy handling. As for the case back, it is secured by 6 screws and features an opening covered with a transparent mineral crystal, letting you admire the movement's inner workings. It delivers a water resistance of 5 ATM.

The Dial

Inspired by the Francophone Watchmaking Group, the dark purple brass dial embodies refined elegance and exceptional craftsmanship. It is elevated by a smoky gradient and a sunray effect with a fine radial brushing, showcasing an harmonious blend of impeccable, sophisticated finishes that make it a true feast for the eyes. The outer ring is a matte bezel featuring a traditional minute track, complemented by faceted, polished grey baton indices. These are swept by skeletonized hands treated with luminescence for better legibility in low light. The hands are paired with a slim grey seconds hand for added precision. This stunning backdrop is magnified by an open heart at 7 o'clock and a larger open heart on the opposite side, giving this dial an breathtaking design. The finishing touch is the brand signature at 3 o'clock alongside the "Swiss Made" mention for added authenticity.

The Movement

This model is powered by a reliable and durable Swiss automatic movement - specifically the STP 06-21 caliber, fitted with 26 jewels and delivering a power reserve of 44 hours, driving all central functions with efficiency. Precise and high-performing, it offers a 3-hand analog display and dependable timekeeping for everyday wear.

The Strap

This watch is paired with a handsome black strap with matching topstitching. Crafted in bovine leather with a Saffiano finish, it adds a touch of refined, timeless elegance. Measuring 18 mm at the lug width, it suits every style and features a solid deployant clasp for a secure yet comfortable fit.

Water Resistance

With a water resistance of 50 meters - 5 ATM in watchmaking terms - this timepiece holds its own around water, though it's not meant for extended exposure. You can get away with wearing it in the shower occasionally, but to keep the movement running at its best for years to come, our watch specialists strongly recommend keeping it away from baths, pools, and the sea. In short: no swimming, no diving, no prolonged contact with water.
