Chronoswiss Sirius Flying Regulator Jumping Hour Review
Classic Regulator Layout with a Modern Twist
The silver-plated dial features exquisite hand-guilloché finishing. The jumping hour window at 12 o’clock is paired with a “floating” minute dial, while the small seconds subdial at 6 o’clock ensures precise timekeeping. The blued steel hands offer excellent legibility, displaying time in an elegant and unconventional manner, with the jumping hour adding a playful mechanical feature.
Movement and Technical Details
The watch houses a 40 mm stainless steel case with 12 mm thickness, enclosing the Caliber C.283 automatic movement, based on ETA architecture. This movement offers a 42-hour power reserve and a skeletonized rotor for added visual appeal. The oversized onion crown at 3 o’clock allows smooth winding and easy adjustment, advancing the jumping hour by one increment per full rotation of the minute hand.
Design, Strap, and Wearing Experience
The coin-edge bezel and sapphire crystal caseback emphasize both elegance and craftsmanship. The watch comes with a luxurious alligator leather strap secured with a stainless steel buckle. Water resistance is rated at 30 meters, making it suitable for everyday wear. The combination of regulator layout and jumping hour complication makes it a standout piece in Chronoswiss’s Sirius collection.
