DESIGNER SPOTLIGHT
A Revolutionary Timepiece That Redefines Modern Elegance and Adventure
CIGA Design, the internationally acclaimed watch brand celebrated for its innovation and artistry, proudly announces the launch of the Z Series Hunter, the latest addition to its iconic collection of timepieces.
Embodying the spirit of precision, adventure, and minimalist elegance, the Z Series Hunter is a masterpiece designed for modern visionaries and adventurers.
Reimagining the Iconic Tonneau Shape for a New Era
The tonneau-shaped watch, introduced in 1912, has long symbolized creativity and sophistication in horology. CIGA Design pays homage to this legacy by reinventing the classic form with a bold, modern twist. The Z Series Hunter features a striking three-layered, octagonal tonneau case, blending angular geometry with smooth contours for a design that is simultaneously assertive and refined.
Crafted from 316L stainless steel and coated with a robust Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) finish, the Z Series Hunter offers exceptional durability, scratch resistance, and a sleek matte appearance. Its lightweight design and slim profile provide enhanced comfort, making it a practical choice for daily wear.
Expanded Craftsmanship and Precision
Enhanced by 200% compared to the first-generation model, the skeletonized design of the Z Series Hunter unveils masterful craftsmanship. Hollowed, drilled, and polished chamfered edges create dynamic visual depth, while the refined glass micro-blasting process delivers a satin-like finish, exemplifying meticulous engineering. At the core lies a precision-engineered balance wheel, ensuring smooth and consistent accuracy.
The Heart of Precision and Artistry
At the core of the Z Series Hunter is the newly developed CD-07 skeletonized automatic movement, a marvel of engineering and design. This caliber showcases:
- A 40-hour power reserve, ensuring reliable performance.
- A precise 28,800 vibrations per hour (VPH) for outstanding accuracy.
- 24 jewels, reducing friction and enhancing durability.
- A mesmerizing 120-degree anchor-shaped rotor, combining functionality with aesthetic allure.
The open-worked skeleton dial reveals the intricate craftsmanship behind the movement, turning the watch into a wearable work of art.
The Precision of the Hunter
In the untamed wilderness, a hunter relies on precision, patience, and unyielding focus. These traits inspired the creation of the Z Series Hunter. Designed for those who demand accuracy and boldness in every moment, the skeleton dial reveals the intricate mechanism within – a tribute to sharp focus and calculated movements. Every component works in harmony, ensuring that time is captured with unwavering precision.
Whether chasing dreams or navigating challenges, the Z Series Hunter serves as a steadfast companion, reminding wearers to aim true and stay relentless in their pursuits.
The Spirit of Adventure
Taking its name from the archetype of the hunter – an adventurer, explorer, and seeker of the extraordinary – the Z Series Hunter celebrates the human spirit’s unrelenting desire to capture life’s most elusive moments.
Its bold skeleton design showcases intricate craftsmanship, mirroring the hunter’s meticulous preparation. The robust build and innovative design symbolize resilience and adaptability, qualities essential for any explorer. The Z Series Hunter inspires wearers to embrace their inner adventurer, reminding them that life’s greatest treasures await those who dare to pursue them.
The Art of Focus
The name “Hunter” reflects the art of focus – the ability to hone in on what matters most amidst life’s chaos. The Z Series Hunter watch celebrates this philosophy with its captivating skeleton dial, revealing the beating heart of the timepiece. Each movement is deliberate, mirroring the precision of a hunter’s every step.
With the Z Series Hunter, wear a symbol of clarity and determination, a reminder to pursue goals with unyielding intention and grace.

Practical Luxury Meets Timeless Comfort
