The New DeWitt Academia Night Chronographe


Freedom has been the guiding light of DeWitt’s progress and creativity since its foundation in 2003. As much an aesthete as a designer, free of the constraints imposed by tradition or by any professional past as a watchmaker, Jerome de Witt set up business in Vandoeuvres in order to breathe a sense of newness into the conservative world of timepieces.

At this year’s Baselworld, DeWitt debut the playful yet functional Academia Night Chronographe that interprets the measurement of short times in a diurnal/nocturnal mode. The Night Chronographe stands out from existing chronographs with its powerful signature Imperial Column motif and its sequential seconds counter. The watch dials are coated with white Superluminova and most surprisingly, dark, nearly black superluminova. The black dial background is accented with black luminescent matter printed on the minute track and the minutes/seconds counters

Within the 43mm Academia case, the Night Chronographe beats to a self-winding mechanical movement with power reserve of approximately 48 hours and water resistance to 50 meters. Available in a case made entirely of 18kt rose gold or in a case crafted from alternating white and rose gold combining rubber inserts, the Academia Night Chronographes are extremely limited in production.
