Baselworld 2016: “Pow!” it’s Batman Again

RJ-Romain Jerome returns by enriching its Batman-DNA collection with a new collectible - the Batman-DNA Gotham City - to please fans and collectors. In collaboration with Warner Bros. Consumer Products, on behalf of DC Entertainment, the new limited edition pays tribute to the city of darkness and its strong aesthetics.

True to the original model, the Batman-DNA Gotham City timepiece is enhanced with the facetted bezel in black PVD-coated steel, reminiscent of the Batmobile. Each of the facet, either sand-blasted or polished, has been hand-finished and given RJ typical “rough” effect to recall the roughness of Gotham City.

The bezel gives way to an all-black and sophisticated dial built on three layers. Thanks to a great 3D effect, the City seems to be coming out of the dial. This striking perspective of Gotham City’s buildings is the result of a complex engraving process.

Watching over the City, Batman the vigilante sits on the top of the dial. The black sand blasted applique with a polished and hand-chamfered outline conveys Batman power, who dominates the scene and the entire timepiece.

At night, Gotham City comes alive thanks to a strong blue Superluminova, lighting up the hand-applied Batman applique and showcasing the City different personalities

Inspired by The Dark knight trilogy, the Batman-DNA Gotham City timepiece is limited to 75 pieces in honor of the timeless hero.
