AVENTURINE presents a design that is clean and quiet. Its understated elegance is evident in the smaller details, from the ultra-thin 3D printed titanium case with its unprecedented minimal lug structures to its deep blue aventurine dial.
The side of the case fully reveals its skeleton monocoque construction, only achievable with 3D printing technology. It features the Holthinrichs signature and refined details like optically detached lugs, only connected to the case body by invisible micro-joints. The skeleton design makes the watch ultralight and comfortable to wear, weighing only 20 grams in total excluding the strap.
The hands of our DECONSTRUCTED series are designed to reflect the finishing of the case: a sharp sword shape style, open-worked and prominent handmade anglage. To give them a strong presence we cut them out of extra thick corrosion-resistant spring steel.
A dial made out of a deep blue Aventurine mineral dial reminiscent of a starry sky , it enhances the lightness and spaciousness of our design language in the most refined manner.
The curved alligator strap accentuates the elegance of the Aventurine. It is finished with a special patina, available in different colours such as mahogany, cognac, purple and black. All straps are completely handmade with leather from reliable and responsible origins. We strive to find out as much as possible about the origin and processing techniques of the materials used, because sustainability, human and animal welfare are extremely important to us. We work with strap makers from countries such as Belgium, Germany and Italy directly, this way we accommodate your personal requirements for a bespoke strap.
The DECONSTRUCTED case is fully hand finished by our specialists to achieve its powerful appeal. Selective surfaces like the bezel and the lugs are manually brushed using emery sticks, while the more recessed surfaces fully showcase the textures derived from the ultra-modern 3D printing process. Highlighting the possibilities of the technology through its fascinating details and intrinsic beauty of the manufacturing process. It takes about 15 hours to manually finish the case.
Twelve slim and gently sloped baton-shaped indices (key elements in the DECONSTRUCTED line) are designed to guide the viewer's gaze towards the centre into a seemingly infinite space.
Aventurine is arguably the most elegant mineral on Earth, thanks to its unique, deep, and glittering effect reminiscent of a starry sky. Implemented in the AVENTURINE, it enhances the lightness and spaciousness of our design language in the most refined manner. We further emphasize this by adding twelve slim and gently sloped baton-shaped indices (key elements in the DECONSTRUCTED line) designed to guide the viewer's gaze towards the centre into a seemingly infinite space.
With the DECONSTRUCTED series we are bound to take movement component manufacturing and finishing to the next level. The caliber HW-M01 is 50% made in-house and based on an improved Peseux 7001 architecture, which resulted in a caliber simple in its functioning, but constructed for higher stiffness and improved timekeeping. Its bridges are made out of German silver. A material which is beautiful when left uncoated, but also offering a fine base for manual finishing and optional galvanic treatments.
The bridges feature circular côtes de Genève, a clean finish that visually makes the different components orbit around the centre wheel as the centre of gravity, reminiscent of a planetary system.
All components are meticulously finished and embellished with laser-etched details and a strongly manually applied anglage containing 11 hand-cut inward angles.
