Project 2 - X41, chapter 5

Finalization

Here it is: the last chapter of the X41 adventure before preorders are launched on March 12.

PROTOTYPES AND MEETINGS

The prototypes are in production and will be ready by the end of February. Of course, we’ll be taking plenty of beautiful photos and videos, but we’re also going to organize a number of events so that you can try out these marvelous creations in our company. We’ll let you know the locations and dates in the near future.

FINAL COLLECTION

While you’re waiting to get your hands on the Holy Grail, here are some pictures of the final collection.

NUMBERED CREATOR EDITION

CODE41 is not a brand in the traditional sense of the term; it’s more of a community project. The aim
is to gather enthusiasts around a watchmaking project, to help it to become a reality. In the process,
said members become project Creators.

Supporting the X41 project through preorders grants you the following benefits:

  • Enjoy a launch price much lower than the future price
  • Become a Creator Member of the X41 project
  • Get a numbered piece marked CREATOR EDITION
  • Possibility to visit the workshops during production
  • Enjoy a special 3 year guarantee instead of the usual 2

AN INDUSTRY-LEADING PARTNER

Developing a fine manufacture movement isn’t something you can make up as you go along. The best expertise in this field is found in Switzerland, which is why we’ve called on one of the best creators in the country. Timeless Manufacture are distinctive in that they create all of the components used in their movements in-house, except for the balance wheel. This is a fact that deserves to be mentioned, because it’s not uncommon to find manufacture movements fitted with components from industrial movements. In addition, this self-sufficiency grants them complete control over quality and the time taken to acquire components.

TIMELESS MANUFACTURE IDENTITY CARD

  • Founded: 2008
  • Complete mastery of cutting-edge watchmaking expertise
  • High-precision manufacturing department based in Geneva (40 individuals)
  • Watchmaking workshop located in Jura (10 individuals)
  • In-house production of all components except for the balance wheel

NO RISK, ALL REWARDS

Special 3-year guarantee instead of the usual 2
Critical components optimized for reliability over several years
Repairs and servicing guaranteed by our partner even if we cease to exist

How reliable is the X41 movement?

Even though the X41 movement has been developed exclusively for our community, the critical components – the regulating organ, cylinder and wheel train – have been optimized for reliability over several years.

What is the guarantee?

Despite all of our tests, technical issues can still arise. However in such rare cases, our special 3-year guarantee ensures that your watch will be collected at our expense and repaired in the shortest time possible.

How can I have my watch serviced if CODE41 no longer exists in 5 years?

It’s true, we are a young brand, and the fear that we might simply have ceased to exist in a few years is absolutely relevant! However there’s nothing to worry about, as our partner Timeless Manufacture is committed to guaranteeing all repairs under guarantee and the maintenance of all X41 watches, even if we run into some misfortune.

    Sehr schöne Uhr ! Sind auch passende, noch schönere Armbänder dazu geplant ? Z.B. Ein Titan-Band dazu wäre schön. Oder ein Kautschuk-Band wäre sehr robust, praktisch und dennoch schick. Gerne auch ein schönes dickes robustes Lederband.
    Und gibt es Angaben zur Wasser-Dichtigkeit der Uhr ? Bis wie viel Meter Tiefe ?
    Viele Grüße,
    Reinhard

      Vielen Dank! Zurzeit sind noch keine neuen Armbänder geplant, aber wir werden uns Ihre Meinung notieren. Die neue X41 Uhr hat wie die Vorgängermodelle ein 5ATM-Siegel, also bis zu einer Tiefe von 50 m.

    Vous me faîtes tellement saliver à chaque fois que je consulte votre site , pourriez-vous me donner une solution pour ne pas me déshydrater ?

    Vous méritez le Prix Nobel de l’Horlogerie ; les autres manufacturiers n’étant peut-être encore que des étudiants en sciences , dont les futurs diplômes seront peut-être usurpés ? Mon seul défaut est seulement de ne pas avoir les moyens de m’offrir vos Oeuvres d’Art ! Si jamais c’est un jour le cas , je m’offrirai la collection toute entière et me constituerai mon musée privé !!!

    Ich bin heute rein zufällig auf die Webseite von Code41 gestossen und habe die X41entdeckt. Nun bin ich von der Uhr absolut fasziniert. Speziell die grau blaue Version interessiert mich. Der periphere Rotor ist aussergewöhnlich und wird meines Wissens nur von einer der etablierten schweizer Uhrenfirmen angeboten. Mit der Creator Edition kann ich zu einer limitierten Version zu einem sehr fairen Preis kommen (ich bin überzeugt, dass ich bei meiner Hausmarke in Schaffhausen ein Mehrfaches für eine solche Uhr zahlen müsste).
    Ich warte nun also ungeduldig den 12 März ab, um Ihr definitives Angebot zu sehen. Dazu noch eine Frage: Besteht die Möglichkeit, eine bestimme Nummer der Uhr zu bekommen? Da ich mir die Uhr zu meinem Geburtstag schenken möchte, wäre es natürlich toll, wenn die Uhr mein Geburtsdatum tragen würde.
    Tolles Projekt und Resultat!

      Vielen Dank! Das blau-graue Modell ist auch mein persönlicher Favorit. 🙂 Eine Möglichkeit eine bestimmte Nummer bei den Creator Edition zu reservieren besteht leider nicht. Wir werden wie bei unserer ersten Kampagne fortfahren, die Nummern werden in der Reihenfolge der Ankunft vergeben.
