Scandalously GRAHAM
Energizing Rebellious Outstanding Thrilling Inventive Courageous
The Chronofighter 1695 Erotic is a series of silver and gold watches hand-engraved in La Chaux-de-Fonds with 5 erotic scenes from varied worldwide cultures on the case back. A tribute to universal love and passion.
The inventive and questioning Chronofighter 1695 Erotic is not a troublemaker in GRAHAM’s collection. Eroticism and love are sources of inspiration as they constitute the basis of human relationships in the world. We have given the freedom to sample passionate scenes on our wrist machines. Hand-engraved on the case back by local craftsmen in Switzerland, erotic scenes are well hidden on your wrist. A physical contact between your skin and the suggestive silver case (925) or pink gold (18K), you will be the only one to know! A true emotional relationship with the watch will arise.
Five erotic scenes have been chosen in order to represent a view of love and eroticism through five different cultures. Each watch bears the erotic cultural identity of their place. The timeless scenes are hand-engraved with attention to all the details to sublimate passion and harmony.
Evocative, emotional, timeless and sophisticated, GRAHAM raises universal love to the status of art, our watchmaking art.
“All art is erotic.” Gustav Klimt

GRAHAM traces its origins to London clockmaker George Graham (1673-1751) who is considered as the father of modern watch making. He is known as the father of the chronograph as he invented the start and stop device of the chronograph. And the dead-beat and cylinder escapement, the mercury pendulum to compensate the influence of temperature on pendulums, to name a few. He also built the master clock for Greenwich Royal Observatory which timed most of the 18th century and lots of science instruments for astronomers and physicists. GRAHAM was revived in 1995 and is today a privately owned Swiss watch company. GRAHAM SA creates and manufactures its watches in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland.
