Established in 2012 in Stockholm, Sweden, the watch brand “CORNICHE” has announced the limited-edition watch “Ciel Nocturne II” in collaboration with the fashion watch select shop “HMS Watch Store”. From November 23, 2024, a limited edition of 150 pieces will be available at the HMS Watch Store Omotesando and Ontime Shibuya Loft stores, as well as at Cornish stores and the official online store of HMS Watch Store.

Based on Corniche’s popular “Heritage Chronograph” model, the “Ciel Nocturne II,” which has been given a special design and specifications, is the second collaboration of the “HMS Watch Store” that became a hot topic after the first model released in July last year sold out in just one week.
The dial is made of black mother-of-pearl, and the deep green and indigo blue emit a mysterious glow that changes depending on the angle, expressing the beauty of the fantastic night sky. In addition, a one-counter chronograph, which had not been seen in previous models, was specially adopted, and a unique design was given.
The one-counter chronograph is attractive for its simplicity and sophisticated aesthetic created by consolidating measurement functions into a single sub-dial, and the minimalist design succeeds in giving it a classic impression while enhancing legibility.
In contrast to the regular model, which depicts a pine tree symbolizing the French Côte d’Azur on the caseback, this work relieves the words “bonsai” and “manufactured exclusively for our friends in Japan,” which symbolize the relationship with Japan. The left side of the case is also engraved with a serial number indicating limited production, making it a valuable piece for collectors.
The limited number is 250 pieces worldwide, of which 150 will be sold exclusively in Japan. It has been announced that there will be no reproduction, so if you are interested, please contact us as soon as possible. The price is 104,500 yen.
