ChronoTheory & Co CTW-027-Rose description
The CHRONOTHEORY&Co AV-98 Timpani Rose CTW-027-Rose debuted in 2025 as one of three colorways in the first release by the independent Japanese brand. It features a brushed bronze-tone dial with applied silver-colored Breguet numerals and matching hands. Light passing through the lacquered brass creates the impression of the numerals floating above the surface.
The stainless steel case measures 42mm in diameter and is manufactured by Kyowa Seiko, known for their work with Minase. It is milled from a single block without soldering and features multi-axis curved surfaces and parallel polished lug tops. The case is hand-finished, including Zaratsu polishing, to eliminate surface distortion. It is water-resistant to 6 ATM and fitted with a domed sapphire crystal.
Inside ticks a manually wound 6498-1 CT EDITION, based on the ETA 6498-1 and modified with a Triovis regulator. The movement is hand-finished by watchmaker Yutaro Iizuka, with broad anglage, mirror polishing, and proprietary half-circle Côtes de Genève. All visible components are finished to a high standard, and the plates and bridges are plated in 24K gold.
The dial is manufactured by Shokosha using a brushed brass base finished with transparent lacquer. The small seconds subdial is recessed using precision machining, then replated, lacquered, and polished for contrast. All numeral designs are original and inspired by 1930s and 1940s pocket watches.
The AV-98 Timpani Rose is delivered on an alligator leather strap with a stainless steel deployant clasp. A custom leather carrying case is included in lieu of a traditional presentation box. Warranty is 3 years.
