Inspiration

We live in a time when many people travel the world, for business or pleasure. Therefore, the Cyrus Genève collection could not miss a watch capable of providing a dual time zone, easy to adjust and immediately readable. The Klepcys GMT Retrograde was thus born, with its retrograde 24-hour second time-zone hand adjustable via the crown at 3 o'clock. A pressure on the crown at 9 o'clock moves the hand forward by one hour, quickly setting the desired local time.

About the Klepcys GMT Royal Purple

Designed to be a user-friendly time instrument and a trusty companion for globetrotters, the Klepcys GMT Royal Purple encompasses all the brand’s hallmark features, both in terms of cutting-edge technology and futuristic, unconventional style.

Bearing the function of a second time zone, this timepiece instantly shows at the same time both local time and home time.

During the design phase, CYRUS opted to set local time as the main time through the central hour-and minute hands. The second time zone is displayed on the 24-hour grey lacquered ring by means of the white retrograde hand with triangular tip, easly adjusted by the crown at 9 o’clock.

The Klepcys GMT Royal Purple is equipped with the in-house automatic movement, calibre CYR708, first introduced in 2020 with the first edition of the Klepcys GMT Retrograde. Updated in its finishing, the movement boasts hand-bevelled bridges and an openworked, royal purple ALD-coated oscillating weight embellished with the Cyrus logo.

Finely crafted in titanium, its cushion-shaped case is 42 mm in diameter and is water-resistant to 10 Atm.
