The history of this Emile Chouriet
The Maison Emile Chouriet cultivates the art of Geneva elegance with meticulous attention to dial detail. While the manufacture regularly excels in the design of diving watches, it also excels in the creation of sophisticated urban timepieces. The Emile Chouriet watch reference 08.1170.G.6.6.E8.6 is a perfect illustration of this classic mastery. Unlike the brand's sports models, which are often fitted with solid backs, this timepiece celebrates watchmaking tradition by incorporating a transparent sapphire caseback, a technical development designed to enable enthusiasts to admire the oscillations of the mechanical movement. Its shaded green dial, richly adorned with majestic Roman numerals, evokes the deep hues of the alpine forests bordering Lake Geneva, definitively anchoring this creation in its prestigious Swiss heritage.
Case, calibre and bracelet of this Emile Chouriet
Sculpted from a block of stainless steel, the case boasts a classic, universal 40 mm diameter. The green dial benefits from a gradient treatment that subtly captures the light to highlight the large applied Roman numerals and facetted hands. A sapphire crystal protects this refined display. On the back of the watch, a visible back reveals the gears and oscillating weight of the EC9316 calibre self-winding mechanical movement. Featuring 25 jewels and beating at a frequency of 4 Hz, this Swiss mechanism offers a power reserve of around 38 hours to drive the hours, minutes, central seconds and date window cleverly positioned at 3 o'clock. A solid-link stainless steel bracelet, closed by a secure folding clasp, completes the ergonomics of this fine timepiece.
Why this Emile Chouriet watch
Opting for this elegant configuration represents a strategic choice for any lover of versatile and status watches. The green hue of the dial is currently establishing itself as one of the finishes most desired by collectors, offering a bold and extremely refined alternative to traditional black or silver dials. The presence of a transparent caseback adds a strong emotional dimension to the object, inviting its owner to contemplate the life of the mechanical movement on a daily basis. Offered in ex-factory condition, this independent Geneva creation delivers a remarkable level of finish for a very rational budget.
