L’Epée 1839 is proud to introduce a fully mechanically engineered Watch Box designed in collaboration with Winston Chapman. The creation elevates your favorite wristwatch to a whole new level of sophistication. Think of it as a VIP lounge for your timepiece, elegantly encased in a clear housing that displays your treasured timepiece and showcases the ingenuity of its own mechanical heart.
This exquisite showcase allows viewers to admire its in-house craftsmanship and hand-made finishing. Without telling the time, L’Epée 1839 creates an experience for the watch owner, forming a deeper connection between him and his timepiece.
With the press of a button, the Watch Box springs to life: its mechanical lift system gracefully opens the case and simultaneously raises the wristwatch, allowing it to stand out like the masterpiece it is. Closing the cover automatically rewinds the internal mechanism, readying it for its next reveal.
Like every L’Epée 1839 creation, its mechanical heart is meticulously crafted in-house, from development to assembly, ensuring the Watch Box remains a perpetual accessory. It is precisely engineered to operate without manual winding. Housed within its transparent casing, the Watch Box stands as a creation, celebrating the Manufacturer’s unique savoir-faire and vast in-house craftsmanship. The size of the acrylic box is 21.5 cm long—approx 8.4”—, 15 cm wide—approx 5.9”—, and 14 cm tall—approx 5.5”. The box has a total weight of 3.4 kilograms—approximately 7.5 lbs.
When pressing the button, the mechanical system lets you open the box and display the watch simultaneously. When closing the lid, the system rewinds itself and is ready for subsequent use.
