Helicoprion with red tiger eye & green aventurine
The inspiration
The use of gemstones in dials became particularly popular in the 1970s by luxury brands such as Rolex and Piaget, when the desire for individuality and exclusive design increased.
In keeping with our brand philosophy, we are bringing back this era with this series of Helicoprion with 2 natural stone dials made of red tiger eye and green aventurine.
Red Tiger Eye
red tiger eye has a characteristic, deep red to red-brown color with a silky sheen and shimmering, wave-like light reflections known as the "cat's eye effect". red tiger eye is a powerful protective and motivational stone known for its grounding and energizing effect.
GREEN AVENTURINE
Green aventurine is characterized by its soft to strong green color, which can range from light green to deep emerald green. Its appearance is often characterized by a slightly glittering or shimmering surface, which is caused by tiny inclusions of minerals such as fuchsite (a chrome mica). Green aventurine is often referred to as the 'stone of luck' and is known for its ability to attract prosperity, success and positive energy.
Each dial is unique and captivates with the natural colors and patterns of the natural stone
A total of 100 watches will be produced in the first edition (50x red tiger's eye/50x green aventurine). The watches are numbered from 1-100. They will be shipped in 2 batches after receipt of order. The first shipping batch will start in mid-February, the second batch will start in mid-April 2025.
The Heinrich Helicoprion combines robustness and elegance in its own way in a sports watch. The screw-down bezel with polished edges integrates the robust character of this elegant sports watch and dares to be different. With the screw-down crown and 200m water resistance, the watch remains true to the Heinrich DNA of the previous Taucher.
