RAYMOND WEIL NEW 2025 EXCLUSIVE PIECE ON × SECTOR DIAL IN EXQUISITE CHAMPAGNE GOLD. The first Japan limited edition model of the Millésime will be released on March 1, 2025. Raymond Weil “Millésime Center Seconds Sherman Limited Edition” Gressive
Swiss watch brand RAYMOND WEIL will release the “Millésime Center Seconds Shermann Limited Edition” on Saturday, March 1st, which is limited to watch specialty store Sherman.
The first Japan limited edition model of the Millésime, jointly developed with Sherman, has a fresh presence with a vintage taste and stirs up men’s desire for ownership.
This work is only available at the Shellman Ginza Mitsukoshi store, Japan Bridge Mitsukoshi store, and Shinjuku Isetan Honkan store, and you can see the actual machine at the Ginza Mitsukoshi store from February 5 (Wednesday).
A Japan limited edition model that perfectly expresses the balance of “neo-vintage”
The Millésime’s first Japan limited edition model features a champagne gold color carefully selected from numerous color samples for the sector dial that displays the hour, minute, and second scales on different tracks, which are synonymous with Millésime.
The hour index, which is displayed in Arabic numerals only at 12 o’clock and combines squares and bars at 3, 6 and 9 o’clock, is a limited edition that is reminiscent of an antique watch but shines with the unique personality of the millésime.
The brand logo and hands, colored by a subdued anthracite, perfectly match the vintage flavor of the champagne gold sector dial.
From the center where the vertical streaks create a rich expression, the height increases toward the smooth-textured hour track, while the outermost minute track, which has a concentric pattern, slopes gently outward.
The intricate dial design is three-dimensional and varied, and the black circumference on the border between the center and the hour track further accentuates the impression of the sector dial.
39.5 mm diameter case with box-shaped sapphire crystal windshield
The model “Millésime Center Seconds Sherman Limited Edition” is inspired by the models of the past, when small-diameter cases (diameter 30mm~38mm) were the mainstream, but adopts a case with a diameter of 39.5mm, which is in line with the trend of watchmaking in recent years. It is designed to be the best size that meets the 5 bar water resistance (reinforced waterproof for daily life) and thin thickness (9.25 mm) that can be used daily.
The carefully chamfered bezel has the effect of making the case look thinner, and the hairline finish on the sides of the case lugs and bezel, and the polished finish on the top of the lugs and the bezel chamfer, giving a three-dimensional effect by using the two different finishes.
In addition, the long, vintage-inspired lugs have a rounded tip that is bent sharply to the side of the caseback to improve wearing comfort.
Raymond Weil “Millésime Center Seconds Shellman Limited Edition” (2925-STC-JAP01) 308,000 yen * Limited to 30 shellmen
This work reproduces a vintage design windshield with a cylindrical box that is reminiscent of a plastic windshield of the past, with sapphire crystal. Using modern technology, sapphire crystal with high hardness is cut into a beautiful box shape.
Equipped with the Caliber RW4200, which is based on the reliable Serita automatic movement
The brown calf leather strap is soft and smooth to the touch and has a vintage-like texture. The edges (sides) are finished on a uniform and smooth surface without irregularities, and the beauty of the edges stands out.
The tip of the sword is embroidered with a W-shaped stitch in the shape of Raymond Weil’s initials, and it is a pin buckle specification that strengthens the classical impression.
From the see-through caseback, you can admire the movement of the W-shaped rotor in the shape of Raymond Weil’s initials, and the 6 o’clock position on the caseback is engraved with the “1 of 30” to prove the limited edition.

Offdian Hour Red Gold Sonora Sunrise
The word “offdian” in “offidian hour” means snake in English. Featuring a snake sculpture with a striking glossy enamel decoration, this new work is the first model without needles. Two disks displaying the numbers of the hour and minute rotate, with the head of the snake indicating the hour and the tip of the tail indicating the minute.
See the Year of the Snake Limited Edition “Offidian Hour” from a different angle
The snake is carved from five blocks of white gold and assembled seamlessly to create a lively shape with supple curves. The multifaceted sculpture with complex curves, which was considered difficult to process with enamel using powder-like materials, was evenly colored by hand by craftsmen with outstanding skills.
One of the new models is a snake in a gradient color that changes from light green to dark green, and a mother-of-pearl dial with a bamboo design with engraving and miniature painting.
The other is a model of a dial with a snake pattern alternating between blood red and green, and a marbled ore Sonora Sunrise cut out to a thickness of only 0.8 mm.
The snake was designed by John Howe, the illustrator and conceptual artist of The Lord of the Rings. With the motif of “Ruyi”, a word of Chinese origin that symbolizes protection and good luck, the S-shaped image was incorporated into the design of the snake.
Both use green rubber belts. It uses a silicon spring and is equipped with a movement with a power reserve of about 68 hours.

Development of a Sherman limited edition model
Founded in 1971 as an antique shop, Sherman has developed masterpieces centered on antique watches and jewelry. Currently, we carefully select attractive watches based on our own criteria that can be used for a long time, have a good balance between quality and price, have individuality and can be attached to them, and give a glimpse of the intention (passion) of the creator. We handle a wide range of gems based on the concept of masterpieces that have been passed down across times and trends, such as unique works of small maison brands that do not belong to major maisons and strive to make watches, current brand watches that are produced with unique beliefs and commitments, and original quartz watches equipped with complications.
To commemorate the start of Raymond Weil at the Sherman Japan Bridge Mitsukoshi store and the Shinjuku Isetan Honkan store, we have jointly developed the first Japan limited edition model of the vintage-inspired Millésime with Sherman. It is a timeless special piece that watch lovers will love for a long time.
feature
Elegant champagne gold × sector dial
The sector dial, which is synonymous with the Millésime, displays the hour, minute, and second scales on different tracks, and is champagne gold-colored, carefully selected from a large number of color samples. The hour index, which is displayed in Arabic numerals only at 12 o’clock and combines squares and bars at 3, 6 and 9 o’clock, is a limited edition that is reminiscent of an antique watch but shines with the unique personality of the Millésime. The brand logo and hands, coloured with a subdued anthracite, perfectly match the vintage flavor of the champagne gold sector dial. In addition, the hour and minute hands are coated with luminescent paint Super LumiNova to moderately modernize them with a sharp form to maintain a “neo-vintage” balance.
From the center where the vertical streaks create a rich expression, the height increases toward the smooth-textured hour track, while the outermost minute track, which has a concentric pattern, slopes gently outward.
It realizes a complex dial design that is three-dimensional and has a variety of finishes. The black circumference on the border between the centre and the hour track further accentuates the impression of the sector dial.

Millésime Center Seconds Sherman Limited Edition
39.5mm diameter case
While inspired by the models of the past, when small-diameter cases (diameter 30mm~38mm) were the mainstream, we adopted a case with a diameter of 39.5mm, which is in line with the trend in watchmaking in recent years. Designed to be the best size that meets the requirements of 5 ATM water resistance (reinforced waterproof for daily life) and thin (thickness 9.25 mm) so that you can wear it safely and comfortably in your daily life.
The carefully chamfered bezel has the effect of making the case look thinner. The sides of the case lugs and the bezel are finished with a hairline finish, and the top of the lugs and the chamfered part of the bezel are polished, and the contrast created by using the two different finishes gives a three-dimensional effect. The long, vintage-inspired lugs have a rounded tip that is bent sharply toward the caseback to improve comfort.
Box-type sapphire crystal windshield
The vintage design windshield that looks like a cylindrical box covered with a plastic windshield of the past, reminiscent of the old plastic windshield, is reproduced with sapphire crystal. Using modern technology, sapphire crystal with high hardness is cut into a beautiful box shape.
strap
The brown calf leather strap is soft and smooth to the touch and has a vintage-like texture. The edges (sides) are finished on a uniform and smooth surface without irregularities, and the beauty of the edges stands out. The tip of the sword is embroidered with a W-shaped stitch in the shape of Raymond Weil’s initials.
Pin buckle specification that strengthens the classical impression.
Movement
It is equipped with the Cal. RW4200, which is based on the reliable automatic movement made by Cellita. From the see-through caseback, you can admire the movement of the W-shaped rotor in the shape of Raymond Weil’s initials. At 6 o’clock on the caseback, the “1 of 30” is engraved to prove the limited model.

S798M-05 Maeve Yukikaze Model
The first model is designed in the image of Maeve Yukikaze. The dial was based on a mud gray color that reproduced the color of the aircraft.

The case is coated with Gun metal IP coating to give it both durability and a stylish appearance. In addition, to ensure visibility in the dark, the indexes and hands are made of superluminous. In addition, the NATO nylon belt is reinforced, so durability can be expected. The selling price is 27,500 yen.
【Image】Comparing two types of Japan watches “Kentex” and the Air Self-Defense Force Classic Standard model base

In addition, to reflect the world view of the work, the symbol “SAF” was placed at 12 o’clock and the boomerang squad was placed at 6 o’clock.
