CLEGUER Horology Inspiration One — front and back view

THE WATCH

Let's write the first page

The Inspiration One is the inaugural timepiece of CLEGUER Horology. Designed with a careful consideration of what should be highlighted and what should remain concealed, it strikes a deliberate balance between visibility and mystery.

Its open construction selectively reveals key elements — the escapement, the balance wheel, the power reserve — while keeping others deliberately out of sight. The result is a watch that changes with every angle, every light, every moment of attention.

THE ESCAPEMENT

A solution to a problem resulting on a novel escapement

The Innate escapement is the result of trying to solve the self-starting shortcoming of the natural escapement

Utilizing the double wheel of the Natural escapement and indirect tangential action of a Fasoldt escapement, it materializes in a central lever embarking both locking and impulsion pallets

A new escapement both "Friction free" and self-starting

THE MOVEMENT

Layer by layer

The movement's architecture accentuates this sense of depth, descending in tiers from the central seconds to the barrel bridge, and finally down to the mainplate

Designed for clarity and precision, it features an expansive, open construction that selectively reveals key elements, such as the proprietary innate escapement, an oversized 12.9mm balance wheel and the power reserve indication on the front of the watch, and the gear train, ratchet click system and Maltese Cross stopwork on the reverse

THE DISPLAY

Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication

The decentered champlevé Grand Feu enamel subdial displays hours and minutes with quiet authority. It's material and position were deliberate, enamel for good contrasted and positioning on the right side to ease legibility under a shirt. While the elongated central seconds hand amplifies the void that lies underneath

Inscriptions have been kept to a minimum. The brand name appears only on the inner flank of the case. The power reserve is visible on the front, while serial number, collection name, and brand name appear on the reverse
