The Romain Jérôme Titanic-DNA  is not simply a watch; it is a physical fragment of history transformed into high watchmaking. Limited to just 25 pieces, this extraordinary timepiece incorporates authentic steel recovered from the wreck of the RMS Titanic, embedding one of the most powerful maritime legends ever told directly into the case and dial.

The bold 50 mm case is crafted from black PVD-coated steel and stabilised Titanic steel, its raw and oxidised textures intentionally preserved to express age, erosion, and permanence. No two examples are exactly alike, each bearing a unique surface patina shaped by time and the ocean itself. The openworked dial continues this narrative, revealing layers of corroded metal and mechanical depth, 

At the heart of the watch is a manually wound Swiss movement, suspended to enhance visibility and drama. The architecture is deliberately exposed, allowing light to interact with the materials and the rotating cage, reinforcing the tension between decay and precision, history and innovation. This is horology stripped of polish and convention, replaced by storytelling and substance.

This example is offered as pre-owned but New Old Stock, preserving its original condition while remaining an exceptionally rare opportunity to acquire one of Romain Jérôme’s most iconic and provocative creations. The Titanic-DNA  is a watch for collectors drawn to narrative-driven horology, where emotion, material authenticity, and mechanical complexity converge in a statement unlike anything else in watchmaking.
