Formex’s bestselling Essence now lands in the sweet-spot 41 mm stainless-steel case—precisely re-proportioned between 39 and 43. It retains the brand’s signature, patented Case Suspension System and adds a new screw-down crown engineered to work with the shock-absorbing case design for extra security and comfort. Four signature dials—Blue, Gamaret, Dégradé, and White—showcase crisp finishing from our family-owned dial manufacture in the Swiss Jura. A next-generation, patented butterfly clasp brings on-the-fly micro-adjustment (0 / 3 / 6 mm) without opening the bracelet, so the fit stays perfect all day. Vertical brushing and diamond-polished bevels run end-to-end—from bezel and case through bracelet, indexes, and hands—for a cohesive Formex finish. Swiss Made. COSC-certified. Built for everyday wear.

Movement

A Swiss Made automatic chronometer certified by COSC powers the Essence 41. Each movement completes the 15-day rate test for outstanding accuracy and precision, and is finished with Formex’s custom skeletonized rotor.

Dial

The Essence’s defining horizontal grooves are CNC-machined line by line for sharp relief and light play. A beveled date window at six o’clock integrates seamlessly with color-matched date wheels. Applied, diamond-polished indexes and hands feature Swiss Super-LumiNova BGW9 for clear legibility day and night. Available in Blue, Gamaret, Dégradé, and White—each with its own finishing touches.

Straps and Clasp

Choose the stainless-steel bracelet with a seamless, patented butterfly clasp offering three discreet micro-adjust settings (0 / 3 / 6 mm) you can change in seconds—no tools, no removal, even to tighten. Leather, rubber, and nylon straps pair with Formex’s in-house deployant clasp featuring a gradual fine-adjust system for a dialed-in fit. All options are quick-change, so you can swap between straps and bracelet without tools—fast and secure.
