A movement that becomes the design.
The Freelancer RW1212 places mechanical craftsmanship at the centre, with an open-worked grey dial revealing the balance wheel and the architecture of the calibre beneath.
The combination of Swiss engineering, refined finishing, and a rose gold PVD bracelet creates a watch that feels both contemporary and timeless.
This is the watch we recommend to collectors who appreciate the beauty of a mechanical movement — a complication of craftsmanship rather than complexity.
A calibre designed to be admired.
The RW1212 automatic calibre was developed in collaboration with Sellita and created to showcase its mechanical architecture through the open-worked dial. The visible balance wheel at 6 o’clock and Côtes de Genève-finished oscillating weight highlight the precision and craftsmanship behind every movement.
Servicing is handled through our relationship with Raymond Weil, ensuring factory-standard care and continued Swiss mechanical performance for years to come.

A relationship, not a transaction.
Every watch we sell stays close to us. We organise servicing, source straps, and answer the telephone ourselves — for as long as the watch is yours, and the wrist after that.
When the time comes, we arrange the full service through Raymond Weil and handle the shipping both ways.
Replacement straps and bracelets at cost, in any material the manufacture offers, fitted in person at the bench.
You speak to Jason — for a warranty question, a service interval, or simply a second opinion — for as long as you own the watch.
Hold it once. Turn it over.
A watch makes more sense in the hand than on a screen — particularly through the sapphire back. Book a viewing at 900 West Hastings St., Vancouver and we will put a loupe in your hand.
