Project 2 - X41, step 7

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.

    Hallo
    ich bin heute zufällig auf Ihre Projekte aufmerksam geworden, und werde mir zoiemlich sicher eine X41 zulegen, wenn Sie wieder lieferbar ist.
    Frage:
    haben Sie evtl. geplant, zukünftig die Entwicklung eines Chronographen auf Basis der X41 ins Auge zu fassen?
    Daran würde ich gerne teilhaben;-).
    M.f.G.

    Bonsoir à tous,
    j’ai reçu, il est quinze jour environ, ma deuxième montre mécanique, seulement pour moi. La première était un chrono Breitling daté 1949 qui était à mon père. Code41 est simplement merveilleuse en toute sa simplicité. J’attend une nouvelle sortie prochainement.
    Félicitations pour le projet e pour sa réussie.

    Interessantes Projekt und schöne Uhren – leider finde ich etwas mehr detailliertes über Materialien Uhrwerk ( Juweils) ganggenauigkeit – Laufdauer – Cronometer Zertifikate echt. Würde mich sehr freuen wenn ich da mehr Details hätte – Grüße von Jörg aus den philippinen

      Vielen Dank für Ihr Interesse! Das X41 Uhrwerk hat 33 Juwelen, die Genauigkeit beträgt -2/+10 Sekunden pro Tag, die Reservedauer ist 42H. Es wird nach den COSC-Normen geregelt, aber wir planen nicht, die Zertifizierung zu beantragen, da dies hohe Kosten verursacht und den Einzelhandelspreis noch weiter erhöht.
