About This Watch

Pre-owned but never used. Comes with orig. leather bound case with matching numbered metal plate but the papers have been lost. Watch is in absolutely mint condition while the strap is fresh & clean but has been buckled up.Case & buckle are perfect & good as new.

The Diaphane One is unique & commissioned by Nicholas Hayek as a testament to the world that Swatch is capable of producing a high quality mechanical watch. Swatches were considered a plastic watch with low price tags but this time they clearly wanted to make a statement and show its expertise so the Diaphane One was conceived, a groundbreaking watch that shook the watch world. It was completely mechanical yet housed in their signature plastic case while a diamond was added for a sense of luxury.

The Swatch Group is the worlds largest watchmaker with multiple brands in it's stable. In 2001 Swatch launched its 2222 Diaphane One watches for an eye popping price of 3,333 euros, they were sold out.

The carousel movement moves inside the case what makes this watch so extremely special. The whole movement makes in one hour a full rotation.

This specimen is #322 out of 2222pcs made. It is good as new with no signs of wear as it has been part of a large collection of other hi-end watches for the past 11years.
