Swatch is perhaps the most famous brand of Swiss timepieces and the king of limited-edition watches having launched a dozen or more every year for decades. But the 2001 Swatch "Diaphane One" was perhaps the most shocking of all: Costing upwards of TEN TIMES more than any other model, the Diaphane One boasted a totally unique rotating Tourbillon Carousel movement. It was high horology and pricey luxury in a sleek plastic and aluminum package that was unmistakably Swatch! The Swatch Diaphane One was a breakthrough in innovation yet retaining its "Swatchness" all at once. movements feature a rotating escapement to counteract the force of gravity on the time-keeping heart of the watch. Although not technically necessary in modern watches, tourbillons give manufacturers bragging rights due to their complexity. A is similar in concept but slightly different in execution. This watch somewhat encompasses both and is considered to be one of the most complicated and amazing movements ever used in any fine timepiece and to celebrate this, Swatch even included a small diamond on the first 1999 of the 2222 watches made. This piece is numbered 1968 and has that diamond.
The Swatch Diaphane One was released in 2001 in a limited edition of 2222 pieces to celebrate the opening of the Place Vendome store in Paris. Priced at a nosebleed-inducing €3,330, the Swatch Diaphane One was nevertheless snapped up immediately by Swatch fans, with many (including this one) sitting in vaults in “new old stock” condition to this day. For a while, prices on the Swatch Diaphane One rocketed upwards to as high as €8,000. But this is your unique opportunity to purchase one not only well below the previous market, but even below the original retail price. From my research, there is not a Brand New, Never Worn piece like this at this price anywhere on the planet.
Interested buyers should first call me at 786-208-1887 with any questions before bidding. This watch has never been worn even once and has remained in my safety deposit box with a larger collection of rare timepieces ever since.
Seller reserves the right to withdraw the auction at any time and/or to cancel any and all bids. This watch will only be sent out by insured courier after buyer signs a purchase agreement. The watch will only be shipped to the actual, registered eBay buyer to his or her registered and verified eBay and Pay Pal addresses.
