This attitude is characteristic of Chaykin’s entire watch collection, which creates a precious feeling of unity with all its obvious versatility.

"Hijra" - The watch with an Islamic calendar

The harmonious combination of the strict external design of the watch with the décor’s traditional Islamic elements best portrays a modern view of the cultural and historical heritage of the Islamic civilization. All the numerals, as well as the names of the days of the week and months on the dial are written in the Arabic language, understandable for the majority of Muslims in the world. The traditions of Islamic architecture are reflected in the shape of the hands – the hour hand is made in the form of the dome of a mosque, and the minute hand like a minaret. The Islamic calendar date indicator hand is crowned with the most famous symbol of Islam – the crescent. addition, the watch shows the days of the week and the moon phases. The perfect finishing of the movement and the noble watch decoration eloquently testify its belonging to Haute Horlogerie.
