COINWATCH – Zodiac Collection Limited Edition - Year of Horse Watch

COINWATCH – Zodiac Collection Limited Edition - Year of Horse Watch NEW


Since its foundation, Coinwatch has established its unique position within the watch industry with its creativeness of using coin-related elements on its timepieces. In 2014, which is the Year of Horse in the traditional Chinese calendar, Coinwatch has taken an Australian 50-cent commemorative coin of the Year of the Horse to create a new and unique timepiece, merging the cultures of the East and the West into one special creation.

Coinwatch has always honoured the unparalleled value of coins in the brand’s creative philosophy. The year of mintage of each coin, together with its design, that either tell a turn of an era, describe a major historical event or celebrate the achievements of a great figure, bear witness to the passing of time, and serve as an eternal memento of all those memorable events and individuals, thus reinterpret the true meaning of time. After creating many timeless watches, Coinwatch continues its veritable tradition this year. The brand is honourably invited by The Perth Mint of Australia to transform the Mint’s Year of the Horse commemorative coin into an all-new Year of the Horse Limited Edition timepiece.

Originated from Australia, Coinwatch spares no effort in making this new launch an eye-opening and attractive piece. An Australian 999 silver 50-cent Year of the Horse commemorative coin is cleverly transformed to become the centrepiece of the watch by the masterful watchmakers of Coinwatch. Thanks to advanced precision machining technologies, the coin is laterally cut into two halves: the reverse becomes the watch dial and the obverse serves as the caseback, inviting its owner to enjoy a full glimpse to the commemorative coin’s allure.

The horse ranks seventh in the twelve traditional Chinese zodiacs and is considered as a symbol of spirituality. Its liveliness, perseverance and vigour altogether represent the virtues of vitality, courage and passion, and are synonymous with Coinwatch’s innovative spirit. The watch’s symbolic meaning and rarity is realised on its dial: two majestic and gallant steeds are resting by the waters, yet always poised to launch themselves into the great vastness. The commemorative coin’s obverse that serves as the watch’s case back features the portrait of the Queen as well as a mark of its mintage year 2014, identifying the timepiece’s commemorative value.

The majestic horses embody another symbolic meaning for Coinwatch: as the brand’s first Chinese zodiac timepiece, Coinwatch will continue to march forward into this new dimension, with the plans to launch a Chinese zodiac commemorative model in each of the successive years to create a truly timeless collection. The watch’s 40mm case in 316L stainless steel is crafted with clean and simple curves in order to highlight the details of the dial’s delicate engravings, with its elegance completed with a refined leather strap. Equipped with a Swiss-made quartz movement and featuring water resistance up to 30 metres, this 99-piece special limited edition is a not-to-be-missed unique piece for watch collectors who are passionate for the traditional Chinese culture.

 History Coinwatch

Every coin has its own story to tell – its design and year of minting may have represented a succession of important eras, a landmark historical event, a symbol of personal achievement or a significant moment in life.

Coinwatch has been producing symbolic timepieces by merging coins with special designs, historical and commemoratory values as dials with practical time-telling functions to remind their wearers of that particular moment.

Founded in Australia in 1984, Coinwatch’s creations – all housing superb Swiss-made movements – have been produced by professional watchmakers. The company’s international popularity rested not only on the combination of elegant designs and unique values of the coins, but also the endorsements from national mints around the world. With that, Coinwatch was authorized to manufacture timepieces imbedded with local values and national characteristics, thanks to the currency dials, which have been well-received by local markets.

Staying true to its innovative spirit and not to be bound by its legacy of hugely-successful coin dials, Coinwatch’s design team has moved forward and embraced the fundamentals of watch design for now. The brand has evolved into a watchmaker of our time established to stand for simple and refined elegance, practical designs and competitive pricing.
