Heritage of Precision: The Birth of 1955

On September 26, 1955, Shanghai achieved a historic breakthrough—the successful trial of China’s first slim mechanical watch, opening a new chapter in fine watchmaking. The In 1955 Series reimagines this pioneering prototype, with dial engravings of “First Trial Sample,” “1955.10.1,” and “Shanghai.” Six concentric rings and a distinctive red-dotted seconds hand echo the original design, paying tribute to both innovation and the spirit of National Day.

An 18K gold building-shaped logo crowns the dial, symbolizing Shanghai’s pioneering spirit in watchmaking. Bearing rich historical significance, this “golden hallmark” is limited to 700 pieces—timelessly honoring the city’s horological heritage and celebrating moments worth treasuring.

The crown features a refined anti-slip texture, ensuring a secure grip and comfortable touch. This thoughtful design makes adjustments effortless and precise, reflecting the brand’s dedication to blending practicality with refined craftsmanship.
