Gilded Age marks CIGA design’s first expression in pure gold, realized through the GPHG-winning Blue Planet.
CNC-engraved in topographic relief and gilded in 24K gold, the miniature Earth takes on a warm, fluid sheen as it catches the
light. The original Asynchronous-Follow display, powered by the Swiss-made CD-04-S caliber, turns the planet to bring hours
and minutes together at a single point. Framed by ink-black ceramic, the gilded terrain rises in vivid contrast beneath a
domed sapphire crystal. The rounded, lugless case and polished ceramic bracelet merge into one continuous silhouette
around the wrist. The world keeps turning, now cast in a quiet permanence.
Gold does more than endure. It gathers the light of centuries. Worn by kings, set into palaces, carried across oceans, and
passed from hand to hand, it has marked what civilizations chose to value and preserve. Time changes its
setting, never its allure. Now, that legacy turns on the wrist.

A HORIZON LIT IN GOLD
The dial announces the Earth in gold. CNC-engraved into topographic relief, its mountains, valleys, coastlines, and archipelagos are
finished with a final layer of 24K gold. Against an ink-black ocean field, the terrain catches light across every contour,
while raised gold-tone indices trace a horizon around the world.
A HORIZON LIT IN GOLD
Blue Planet reimagines time with an unconventional display. Hands disappear. The sculpted Earth dial turns in their place, taking its cue from the most instinctive measure of time: Earth's own rotation. Through Asynchronous-Follow, hours and minutes converge at a single compass. The whole world moves. One point tells it all.
THE HOURS BEHIND THE SHINE
An epic in miniature. Carved, coated, refined, and gilded into light.

TIME, READ FROM THE EARTH ITSELF
Gilded Age has no conventional hands. Instead, time comes into view as the sculpted dial turns,
taking its cue from the Earth's rotation. Through the Asynchronous-Follow display, hours and minutes meet at a single compass marker on the rotating
planet—one point revealing the time in full.

SEAMLESS, IN BLACK CERAMIC
THE WORK BEHIND THE GLOSS
The iconic Blue Planet case is reinterpreted in refined black ceramic, its rounded, lugless silhouette forming one continuous curve
around the gilded Earth. Silky to the touch and scratch-resistant, the polished surface shifts subtly with the light beneath a domed
sapphire crystal. Available in 43mm and 46mm, with 3 ATM water resistance.

MATERIAL PREPARATION
Zirconia powder is mixed with a binder to form a moldable ceramic feedstock.
INJECTION MOLDING
The compound is injected into a precision mold, establishing the case’s shape.
DRYING
The molded case is dried to remove moisture before high-temperature firing.
SINTERING
The form is fired at 1,500°C for 144 hours, consolidating into dense ceramic.
MACHINING
After cooling, the case is machined and hand-finished to its final dimensions.
POLISHING
Each case is polished for over 200 hours to achieve a smooth surface and deep gloss.
