rue to its commitment to quality and innovation, BA111OD takes a significant step forward by unveiling its first chronometer-certified model by the Observatoire Chronométrique de Genève. This timepiece seamlessly combines watchmaking excellence, minimalist elegance, and versatility, without compromising accessibility.

Designed to accompany every moment of daily life, this new Chapter 7 establishes itself as the ideal accessory for free-spirited and active individuals. Its 40mm stainless steel case naturally adapts to all wrists and styles, from the office to sporting adventures. The chronometer-certified automatic movement ensures outstanding reliability, while its 100-meter water resistance and contemporary design make it a dependable companion, whether in the city, on snowy slopes, or by the water.

“This certification marks a new milestone for BA111OD and reflects our high standards and commitment to offering the best to our customers,” explains Thomas Baillod, founder of BA111OD. Staying true to its values, the Neuchâtel-based brand has chosen the chronometer certification from the Observatoire Chronométrique de Genève, conducted by the TIMELAB Foundation, to meet the most rigorous standards.

Since each movement is individually tested, it ensures an accuracy of -4/+6 seconds per day, well beyond the standards of conventional mechanical watches. Carefully adjusted, this movement also offers increased resistance to temperature variations, shocks, and magnetic fields, guaranteeing optimal performance in all circumstances.

Combining simplicity and refinement, BA111OD’s Chapter 7 stands out with its 40mm stainless steel case, chronometer-certified automatic movement, and a design that strikes the perfect balance between technicality and elegance.

Its 10-sided faceted bezel and the subtle interplay of satin and polished finishes add structure and dynamism, while each polished edge catches the light to enhance the details. The sunray dial, adorned with an asymmetric cascading guilloché pattern, reinforces its unique character.

Available in four colours, each paying tribute to the iconic landscapes of Neuchâtel: Absolute Blue, Frost Blue, Forest Green, and Jet Black - a palette that captures the essence of the canton, from the vastness of the lake to the snow-capped peaks, dense forests, and time-sculpted landscapes.

A harmonious palette, enhanced with either a matching rubber strap for a sporty touch or a stainless steel bracelet for a more sophisticated look. The date at 3 o’clock and the off-centred crown at 4 o’clock, BA111OD’s signature, complete this modern reinterpretation of a classic timepiece.
