A design marked by the greatness of Man.
The design of the “CDG 1970” watch is directly inspired by the powerful symbols that marked Charles de Gaulle’s life. The stars of his kepi, synonymous with his military authority, are finely reproduced on the case, while the golden leaves adorning the side of the watch recall the elegance of this uniform worn during his official outings. The dial, understated and powerful, references the Morse code used during the Resistance, with the famous message “Vive la France,” highlighting the technology that enabled de Gaulle and his supporters to resist the occupier. Every detail has been designed to offer a discreet yet powerful tribute to the general’s legacy, while embodying the dignity and nobility that made him a key figure in French history.
“Honor is about standing up for what you believe to be right, against all odds.”
— Charles de Gaulle
