THE LUM CONCEPT
Luminescent materials have been used since the 1930s to cover the indexes and numerals on timepieces designed for professionals, starting with the military.
THE MANUFACTURE MOVEMENT
The first collection from the brand to include a manufacture movement developed by Kenissi, the BR-X5 is the fruit of several years of research and development. The BR-CAL.323 calibre offers a power reserve of approx. 70 hours.
A BR-X5 WITH A LUMINESCENT CASE
The architecture of the BR-X5's multi-component case in this assembly alternates between multiple layers of LM3D and grade 2 microblasted black titanium with a DLC (diamond-like carbon) finish. Cut from a block of grade 2 titanium with a DLC finish, the container which houses the mechanism is inserted between two shields in LM3D, a photoluminescent composite material made from quartz fibres and which glows bright green.
