What to know
The Inopinée Originale uses the same slim oval architecture as its classical sibling but removes most of the dial furniture. Its black face carries only two white stick hands and discreet branding, balanced by a brown leather strap. The satin 316L steel case is 37mm wide, 8mm thick and 44.5mm lug to lug, with an 18mm strap, sapphire crystal and a crown that can be specified for the right or left side.

Semper & Adhuc installs a restored Swiss 5½-ligne hand-wound calibre with hours and minutes, roughly 36 hours of reserve and a frequency that depends on the salvaged movement. A small aperture in the case back reveals part of the mechanism. Water resistance is 3 ATM, while the French leather strap and engraved steel pin buckle continue the workshop-made character.
