CIGA Design - Legend of Serpent


An Artistic and Symbolic Tribute to the Serpent

The most distinctive element of this timepiece is the serpent at the center of the dial, brought to life through symbolic abstraction and sculptural techniques. Rather than opting for a simple depiction of the animal, CIGA Design embraces a more artistic and abstract approach. The serpent rotates, embodying its vitality and perpetual motion.


Thanks to the patented "Asynchronous Tracking Technology," the serpent’s head indicates the hours, while its tail follows the motion of the minute dial, precisely marking the passage of time. Unlike traditional watches, the hour dial remains stationary while the minute dial moves, with the serpent’s tail tracking its movement to indicate the minutes.


Positioned at the heart of the dial, the serpent features a satin-gold texture and gold plating, resting on an abstract pattern reminiscent of serpent scales. This design captures the dynamic essence of the serpent while symbolizing the prosperity and vitality associated with the Year of the Serpent.




A Revolutionary Design


The Serpentine Hand: A Masterpiece of Craftsmanship

Available in 18-carat gold or 925 silver, the central hand is designed in the shape of a serpent in motion. Forged using ancient techniques and hand-polished, it adds a unique dynamic to the way time is read.


A Dial Inspired by the Serpent

The hexagonal dial, inspired by serpentine patterns, features subtle reliefs that create a fascinating three-dimensional effect. This honeycomb design adds remarkable visual depth.


A Black Agate Case

Crafted from black agate from Madagascar, each piece is unique. This semi-precious stone is known for its protective and balancing properties.


Cutting-Edge Technology : The Asynchronous-Follow Movement
