DRACULA — DARK LEGENDS
The dial is built around the visual language of Dracula: immortality, seduction and the eternal struggle between darkness and light translated into a mechanical object.
At twelve o’clock, the blood-red full moon dominates the dial, illuminating the silhouette of a Gothic castle against a storm-darkened sky. Just beneath it, two sharp vampire fangs add a distinctive detail, reinforcing the watch’s connection to Dracula and the timeless mythology of the vampire. Together, these elements evoke a nocturnal world where ancient power, mystery and the supernatural exist beyond the boundaries of the ordinary world.
At six o’clock, the small bat motif adds another layer of symbolism. Traditionally associated with vampires and the night, it represents transformation, stealth and the ability to move between worlds. Its position beneath the castle creates a visual link between Dracula’s domain and the creatures that inhabit the darkness surrounding it.
At the heart of the dial, the imposing Gothic castle rises from a landscape of dark mountains and mist. Its towers and spires evoke Dracula’s legendary domain — a place suspended between history and myth, where centuries of secrets remain hidden behind stone walls and shadowed corridors.
Emerging from the darkness, the pair of glowing red eyes introduces a subtle but unsettling reference to the vampire himself. Partially concealed within the nocturnal landscape, they suggest a presence that watches from the shadows, reinforcing the sense of danger and supernatural power without revealing the creature completely.
Running across the dial, the intricate nocturnal landscape combines Gothic architecture, jagged mountains and shadowy forests beneath the crimson moon. The contrast between the red sky and the deep black silhouettes creates a dramatic visual tension between life and death, light and darkness, reinforcing the timeless atmosphere of the Dracula legend.
The SIGNARIS compass emblem introduces the brand’s identity within this mysterious world, serving as a mark of orientation in a universe where familiar rules no longer apply. Surrounded by the supernatural imagery of the dial, it reinforces the idea of navigating the unknown and exploring the boundaries between reality and legend.
The 40 mm stainless steel case is designed to balance presence and wearability, while the integrated stainless steel bracelet reinforces the continuity of the silhouette and the architectural identity of the watch. A sapphire crystal protects the dial and its applied details, offering high scratch resistance and clarity. Inside, an automatic mechanical movement powers the watch through the natural motion of the wrist, keeping the concept rooted in traditional mechanical watchmaking rather than purely decorative storytelling.
Every element is intended to serve the same idea: translating Dracula not into an illustration, but into form, material, symbolism and mechanical presence.
For those who find beauty in the darkness.
