Krayon Anywhere Magnolia paints sunrise and sunset in platinum

Krayon has given its sunrise and sunset complication a new artistic turn with the Anywhere Magnolia, based on the Anywhere, the watch the brand first introduced in 2020.

The dial is deep black onyx, painted by hand with magnolia petals. The inspiration is the magnolia tree outside Krayon’s manufacture in Neuchâtel. Two of the petals carry the complication: one facing upwards marks sunrise on the 24-hour scale, and one facing downwards marks sunset. Three petals form a Y, a nod to the Krayon logo.

Because every dial is painted individually, the petals sit slightly differently from one watch to the next.

The case is platinum, 39 mm across and 9.5 mm thick. It is worn on a black hand-stitched alligator leather strap with a platinum pin buckle.

Inside is Calibre C030, a manually wound movement 5 mm thick. It is made up of 432 components and 55 jewels, beats at 21,600 vibrations per hour (3 Hz) and stores a 72-hour power reserve.

The Anywhere Magnolia is limited to 15 pieces in platinum and costs CHF 178,000 before taxes.
