SECURICODE WATCHES

SECURICODE WATCHES

A tribute to the very first Grands Fonds watch from 1959, the ZRC SECURICODE embodies the origin of a horological legend born from a tender issued by the French Navy. A true founding piece, it laid the very first foundations of a unique expertise from the outset.

Tested by the G.R.S. of the French Navy between May and November 1961, and subsequently officially adopted, this first version of the Grands Fonds — still featuring a crown positioned at 3 o’clock — equipped French Navy divers until 1966. An authentic heritage from which the Securicode draws inspiration with both precision and modernity.

More refined than its descendant dedicated to extreme diving, the Securicode stands out for its timeless elegance. It reinterprets the original design codes in a perfectly controlled neo-vintage spirit, conceived for an urban chic lifestyle. Its balanced design, both understated and assertive, makes it a timepiece equally at home under a shirt cuff or in the most demanding everyday environments.

The case, the result of ZRC’s long-standing expertise in designing perfectly watertight structures, stands out for the quality of its finishing, precisely alternating satin-brushed and polished surfaces. The integration of noble materials, such as a ceramic bezel insert, further enhances both the durability and refinement of the whole. It also incorporates the brand’s latest innovations, including the programmed deformation caseback, an exclusive technology resulting from extensive research into material behaviour under high pressure.

Every detail is given the utmost attention, reflecting a high level of manufacturing excellence and a sense of detail characteristic of Swiss watchmaking. True to the ZRC® philosophy, the Securicode is powered by a Sellita SW200-1 automatic movement in an elaborated version, renowned for its reliability, precision, and robustness.

Assembled according to Swiss Made standards, this timepiece delivers a level of finishing and quality that meets the highest expectations. At the crossroads of heritage and modernity, the ZRC Securicode stands as a refined interpretation of the Grands Fonds DNA: a characterful watch, both elegant and versatile, designed to accompany every moment with distinction.
