Millésime 35 mm Small Seconds: heritage, elegance, and character

This 35 mm model is part of Raymond Weil's commitment to offering authentic and timeless watchmaking that is never static. By revisiting the codes of classic three-hand watches – sectorized dial, small seconds, domed crystal – the Geneva-based Maison celebrates the spirit of watchmaking of yesteryear while bringing it fully into the present day.

The 2130-STC-80001 version is an ode to understated elegance: here, everything is about balance. The choice of a salmon dial, historically reserved for the most exclusive models of the great manufacturers, adds a rare and precious touch, reinforced by the softness of the leather.

A collector's dial, designed for readability

The salmon-colored sectorized dial, protected by a domed sapphire crystal glassbox, is organized into three circles with different textures:

• An outer minute track decorated with a snail-shaped guilloché pattern,
• A vertically brushed central area that captures the light in a soft and refined way,

A smooth hour track punctuated by printed black baton hour markers, contrasting with the warmth of the background.At 6 o'clock, the small seconds are set in a recessed subdial, introducing an elegant visual depth.

The finely faceted silvered dauphine hands are coated with Super-LumiNova®, ensuring perfect readability even in low light conditions.

This rare and legible dial recalls the most beautiful historical creations, while retaining a contemporary clarity that is ideal for an everyday watch.

Refined, comfortable case

The slim and elegant 35 mm stainless steel case alternates vertically satin-finished bezel, polished bevels, and brushed lugs on the sides, polished on top, in a balanced play of contrasts.

It rests on a supple, lightly grained gray calfskin strap adorned with the Maison's signature “W” stitching. This color combination with the salmon dial creates a subtle and unusual duo that is both distinguished and accessible. The polished steel ardillon buckle ensures a simple and reliable fit.

On the back, a transparent sapphire case back allows the mechanics to be seen in action, including the understated and elegant “W” oscillating weight.

Swiss automatic movement

The watch is powered by the RW4251 caliber, based on the robust Sellita SW261-1, renowned for its precision and durability. It offers:

• Hours, minutes, small seconds at 6 o'clock
• A frequency of 28,800 vph (4 Hz)
• A power reserve of 38 hours

This movement is visible through the transparent case back, in a presentation that is simple and consistent with the spirit of the watch: a useful, discreet, but very present mechanism.
