Joker Five
ABOUT THIS WATCH
Konstantin Chaykin’s Joker became a sensation amongst watchmaking connoisseurs in 2017. In 2022, the master horologist decided to celebrate the five-year anniversary of the popular model by creating an entirely new Joker Five watch with a new design and a new complication.
When considering the new model, Konstantin Chaykin decided to use an open-worked dial similar to the unique Martian Tourbillon created for the Only Watch 2021 auction.
This design makes the main functional components of the Joker-indication module visible from the dial side. Incidentally, the master has redesigned this module: the smiling moonphase indicator has been replaced by a new day-of-the-week retrograde indicator: again, a broad, mischievous grin from ear to ear. Joker Five watch is produced by Konstantin Chaykin under license from DC Comics. All rights reserved.
NEW JOKER-INDICATION MODULE
Konstantin Chaykin has been using day-of-the-week indicators in his Wristmons several times. The Joker Selfie, the Minotaur, and the Smilodon watches possess such a function. In the Martian Tourbillon watch, the "smile", which combined the Martian calendar and the day-of-the-week indicator, received the calendar function for the first time. Chaykin chose this version of the dial design for the new Joker 5 model. Thus, the smile of the new Wristmon became a retrograde day-of-the-week indicator. This time it's a classic, Earth version.

The K.09-0 caliber with automatic winding was created by Konstantin Chaykin especially for this timepiece. The in-house Joker-indication module consists of 142 parts, including 10 jewels.
