  • About this watch

    The Essence Splash Collection is a limited series of vibrant dials with a perfect balance between the gentle allure of pastels and the exhilarating intensity of neon hues. Each dial boasts the Essence collection's distinctive horizontal lines, meticulously CNC-machined into the dial base one by one. To achieve the unique grainy and ultra-matte finish, the colors are skillfully hand-sprayed in our dial manufacture nestled in the Swiss Jura mountains. Contrasting gun-metal finished hour markers and hands enhance legibility and make a bold statement against the vivid backdrop of the dials. At the 6 o'clock position, the date window exhibits its signature slope, flawlessly integrated with a perfectly color-matched date wheel. Embrace the spirit of summer with the Formex Splash collection, a unique fusion of colors, craftsmanship, and exclusivity.

39 mm Stainless Steel Case

The ThirtyNine might be smaller in dimension, but comes with the same detailed finishing as the original Essence. The brush finish on both case and bezel are perfectly rounded off with hand-finished mirror polished bevels. With a height of just 10mm, this watch will fit under your shirt cuff as well as your wing suit...

The Essence of Summer

For this summer collection, our goal was to create dials that pop but don't overwhelm. Working with our lacquer specialist on different hues, tints, tones, and shades, we felt that little adjustments sometimes made a surprisingly striking difference. A machined dial like this must be sprayed very skillfully in order to retain the textured character of the dial, while still applying enough lacquer to guarantee a flawlessly colored dial base. It's fascinating how subtle refinements in color, technique and texture can transform the overall aesthetic and evoke a sense of playfulness and vibrancy, perfectly capturing the essence of the summer season. We believe that sometimes all you need is a little splash of color.

officially certified movement

The Essence ThirtyNine is powered by a Swiss Made Sellita SW200-1 self-winding movement with a power reserve of 41 hours. We've chosen its highest quality grade "Chronometer" because it comes with premium components such as a Glucydur balance wheel which is exceptionally hard and stable, very resistant to deformation, non-magnetic, and non-corrosive. The movement is completely decorated and wound by Formex’s in-house developed and custom built skeletonized rotor. Each one of these movements is certified by the COSC (the official Swiss Chronometer Testing Institute) and undergoes the meticulous 15-day rate test to ensure extraordinary levels of mechanical accuracy and precision. Each certified chronometer is unique, identified by a number engraved on its movement and a certificate number issued by the COSC. While less than 3% of Swiss watch movements are officially certified, Formex further rate test them per the same criteria after assembly, to measure if there is any deviation from the certification rates.

fine adjustment clasp

TBesides contributing to visual appeal, the details on the Essence ThirtyNine also serve a purpose. For a timepiece to be a watch for all occasions, it needs to feel exceptionally comfortable on the wrist. For even more wrist comfort, Formex added their patented Carbon Fiber Composite Folding Clasp that allows for fine-adjustment of the strap length on the go, allowing for a perfect fit on the wrist in all conditions and temperatures. The strap can be changed without the use of any tools with Formex's patented quick release system. The stainless steel bracelet with screwed links has the same quick release system and also features a unique micro-extension system.
