Noble metal with mirror-like purity

The structural elements and ornaments of the back cover are crafted from 18-karat white gold, the benchmark standard used in fine jewelry and high-end watchmaking. This precious metal combines the malleability required for delicate hand engraving with the durability needed to preserve the finest details of the design.

Every element is finished by Caviar’s jewelers by hand: engraved, ground, and polished to a mirror shine. In “Celestial,” 18-karat white gold becomes the material that connects the medieval astronomical tradition — white gold as the alchemical union of the Sun and the Moon — with the modern language of luxury design.

A fragment of space, 4 billion years old

The Celestial composition features a genuine Muonionalusta meteorite, an iron-nickel fragment of an asteroid that fell in northern Scandinavia more than a million years ago. Its age is approximately 4.5 billion years, making it as old as the Solar System itself.

Through a special chemical treatment, the meteorite reveals the Widmanstätten pattern on its surface: a unique crystalline structure that cannot be recreated under terrestrial conditions. Each plate has its own one-of-a-kind pattern, formed by the slow cooling of metal in open space over millions of years. The owner holds not an imitation of the cosmos, but a physical fragment of it.

This technique is over a thousand years old

The deep blue color of “Celestial” is created using cold jewelry enamel, a technique in which the pigmented compound is applied and hardened without high-temperature firing. This makes it possible to work with the finest color transitions and complex graphic elements that are unattainable with hot enamel techniques.

The enamel is applied by hand, layer by layer, with intermediate polishing at each level.

The final shade is achieved only after several cycles of application and curing. Any inaccuracy means starting the process all over again. The finished surface retains its color intensity, resists fading and has an impeccable mirror-like shine, reflecting the starry composition of the body.

The light of the starry sky, captured in stone

The body is adorned with high-clarity VVS diamonds in F color. Their exceptional transparency, free from even the slightest impurities, and the absence of visible flaws ensure a flawless play of light in every facet. Only certified diamonds are used for the body’s setting.

Caviar’s artisans secure each stone by hand under a microscope, one by one. The cut of the stones is selected so that the light playing through their facets visually extends the night-sky pattern of the Patek Philippe dial, uniting the body and the timepiece into a single composition.

Watchvault Technology

Watch Vault, or the Time Capsule, is a first-of-its-kind technology that allows a timepiece to be secured inside the smartphone body and released in a single motion. No tools, no effort, no risk to the mechanism. The name refers to the vaults of Swiss banks: the same principle of secure fixation, flawless protection and instant access available only to the owner. The chronometer is held by a precision locking mechanism designed for thousands of opening and closing cycles without affecting the watch’s accuracy.

The owner of Celestial decides how to wear the timepiece: on the wrist or on the smartphone. When the chronometer is removed, a decorative astrolabe-inspired panel takes its place, transforming the device into a complete work of art. One device, two ways to wear it, with no compromise in aesthetics.
