Description
The CIGA Design X-Series in white ceramic represents a bold fusion of architectural design and contemporary watchmaking. This automatic skeleton watch showcases the brand's in-house Caliber CD-01 movement through a fully skeletonised dial, revealing the intricate interplay of gears, bridges, and jewels in mesmerising detail. The 44mm square case is crafted from high-tech ceramic sinter, a material prized for its scratch resistance, lightweight properties, and hypoallergenic finish. With its distinctive industrial aesthetic and exposed mechanical architecture, the X-Series makes a striking statement on the wrist.
At Cassims & Co., we are proud to offer the full range of CIGA DESIGN watches as an authorised retailer in South Africa. The CD-01 automatic movement beats at the heart of this timepiece, featuring 24 jewels and delivering up to 40 hours of power reserve. The sapphire crystal provides exceptional clarity and protection, while the white rubber strap ensures comfort for everyday wear. Water-resistant to 30 metres, this watch is built for daily life, though not intended for swimming or submersion.
The skeletonised dial design is more than visual theatre—it reflects CIGA Design's philosophy of transparency and technical honesty. Every component is visible, from the balance wheel oscillating at 28,800 vibrations per hour to the Geneva stripes adorning the rotor. The white ceramic case contrasts beautifully with the silver-toned movement, creating a harmonious monochromatic palette that suits both casual and formal occasions. The exhibition caseback offers an alternative view of the mechanical ballet within.
Visit us at our Mall of the South boutique in Johannesburg to experience the X-Series in person, or take advantage of our nationwide delivery service across South Africa. Our watch servicing and repairs team is always available to ensure your timepiece receives the care it deserves. This watch comes with a 1-year CIGA Design warranty, covering manufacturing defects when purchased from an authorised retailer.
