DALKOMM｜Loong Ascending From Abyss - Collector’s Edition

Inspired by the ancient Chinese classic I Ching (The Book of Changes), Loong Ascending From Abyss takes its name from the idea of the hidden dragon: a symbol of quiet strength, patient preparation, and the power waiting to emerge. Drawing on the refined aesthetics of imperial Chinese craftsmanship, DALKOMM transforms this timeless philosophy into an expressive work of contemporary independent watchmaking.

The dial brings a Chinese dragon to life through intricate metalworking techniques, while guilloché patterns evoke the finely worked surfaces of traditional court objects. Beneath the sculptural composition lies the Cal. 8006 tourbillon movement, its precise mechanical rhythm embodying the strength concealed beneath a restrained exterior.

The 44.5 mm case is crafted from 316L stainless steel and paired with a 10 mm-thick sapphire crystal, creating depth and presence on the wrist. A distinctive strap combines fluororubber with African python leather, whose naturally irregular markings make each strap unique.

More than a timepiece, Loong Ascending From Abyss is a contemporary interpretation of Chinese symbolism, traditional decorative arts, and mechanical ingenuity. Both the Standard and Collector’s Editions received the Platinum Winner distinction at the 2026 MUSE Design Awards, recognizing their distinctive approach to design.
