What you are seeing today is not a project that appeared overnight, nor something created simply to follow a trend. In truth, this journey began back in January 2024, with pages of sketches, engineering notes, late-night conversations, and countless ideas shared between Danielle and myself.
Like every project we create at Helicon Watches, this has been built upon years of experience, knowledge, mistakes, lessons, and an unwavering desire to create something meaningful.
For us, this was always going to be the next step.
But as many of you already know, we only move forward with a new watch when we believe it is absolutely right.
The engineering and technical development alone have taken many months. Every proportion, every surface, every detail has been carefully considered and refined. We have challenged ourselves repeatedly throughout this process to ensure this would become something truly worthy of the name it carries.
And yesterday marked a very important milestone.
With the arrival of 300 brand-new high-quality automatic movements, the project is now officially green lit and production is underway.
That moment made everything suddenly feel very real.
This is going to be an incredibly special journey for us, and we genuinely want you to be part of it from the very beginning.
The support you gave us during the Helicon Professional Chronograph “MUSTARD” project completely blew us away. Your enthusiasm, encouragement and belief in what Danielle and I are building has given us the confidence to take this next step.
Since then, we have received countless requests for a new automatic professional diver, and honestly, the timing could not have been better.
As you can already see, work is now progressing behind the scenes, and we are currently targeting delivery for the final quarter of 2026.
There will be exclusive early access opportunities, VIP previews, and a very special pre-order collector’s edition for those who choose to join us early on this journey.
As many of you will know, the realities of modern watchmaking continue to evolve. Manufacturing, tooling and movement costs have risen dramatically over the last few years. However, one thing Danielle and I remain absolutely committed to is delivering exceptional quality, engineering and value for money.
This project will be no exception.
All future orders will be handled exclusively through the Helicon website, allowing us to remain close to our customers and maintain the personal approach that has always defined our work.
Most importantly, we want this to feel collaborative.
Your feedback, enthusiasm and support genuinely matter to us, and we cannot wait to share more with you in the weeks and months ahead.
Updates will be frequent.
Progress will be honest.
And we can assure you… there are still many surprises to come.
The journey begins now.
Jonathan & Danielle
And So The Journey Begins… in many ways, this moment has been a long time coming!
