The Space Gold is a special edition meteorite dial that has been plated with 18k rose gold, a groundbreaking feat in dial manufacturing. This infusion of precious metal not only enhances the inherent beauty of the meteorite's Widmanstätten pattern, imbuing it with mesmerizing depth, but also lends an unmistakable character of elegance. With textures as unique as they are organic, each dial becomes a singular work of art, promising an ownership experience that is truly one-of-a-kind.
Breaking away from conventional methods like PVD coating seen in other colored meteorite dials, our approach utilizes the meteorite's high iron content to facilitate depositing real gold via electroplating. Soldering the dial feet onto the meteorite directly instead of adhering it to a brass base plate further enabled us to intricately machine a beveled date window directly into the dial, a signature design element across all Formex timepieces. This development is a product of intense prototyping carried out in our dial manufacture located in the Swiss Jura mountains.
The first 100 units of each Space Gold are numbered. They are powered by a highly precise COSC-certified Swiss Automatic movement and come with the tested and proven patented features our customers already love about their Essence. These include the Case Suspension System and a folding clasp made of carbon fiber, with a unique fine-adjustment system that perfectly adapts to the wrist's ever changing size due to heat and humidity.
Movement
The Essence ThirtyNine is powered by Sellita's highest quality grade SW200-1 Swiss Made Automatic movement, beautifully decorated and wound by Formex's custom skeletonized rotor. Each one of these movements is certified by the COSC and undergoes the meticulous 15-day rate test to ensure extraordinary levels of mechanical accuracy and precision.
Dial
After being cut and plated, the final product is a perfectly flat disc that measures just 0.65mm thick and showcases the natural pattern of the Muonionalusta meteorite. Since the textures are organic and cannot be artificially reproduced, each individual dial will appear slightly different, making every single watch a completely unique piece. Applied indices and hands are gun-metal finished, deep-filled with Super-LumiNova® BGW9 and mirror-polished on the bevels to provide legibility day and night.
Straps and Clasps
For a perfect fit and more comfort on the wrist at all times, we're using the new Formex Deployant clasp with a gradual fine-adjustment system for the leather and rubber straps. The stainless steel bracelet, which reflects the same flawless finishing of the Essence's case, has a hidden Micro-Extension. All straps and the steel bracelet can be changed without the use of any tools and in just a few seconds.
