Céad 126 - Crimson Dawn - Chronograph

$3,095.00

Trusted by Nomadic customers

Céad is the Irish word for ‘first’ - a fitting name for our debut chronograph. It celebrates milestones in Irish motorsport and honours legendary riders. The number 126 marks a lap speed record of 126mph, set by our ambassador Glenn Irwin at the North West 200 - making him the first to break the 125mph barrier. It’s also a subtle tribute to Joey Dunlop’s 26 victories at the Isle of Man TT.

Created for those who embrace opportunity and lead from the front, Crimson Dawn is aimed at individuals who are ready for action. It's a colourway that brings a little more presence to the wrist while maintaining the sophistication and versatility that define the Céad 126.

The Heart of the Céad 126

Inside the Céad 126 beats the Sellita SW500 M-a D4 - a Swiss chronograph caliber built on one of watchmaking’s most trusted foundations. Robust, precise, and endlessly reliable.

With 21 jewels, a high-beat rate of 28,800 vibrations per hour, and a 58-hour power reserve, the SW500 delivers smooth chronograph function and dependable accuracy, day after day. Its cam-operated mechanism is engineered for durability and serviceability, a movement designed to be used, not hidden away.

The D4 grade finishing elevates the caliber with superior adjustment and enhanced refinement, while practical details such as hacking seconds and a quick-set day/date complication ensure everyday utility.

The SW500M is regarded as one of Switzerland’s true workhorse movements - but with a pedigree that speaks of both endurance and elegance. It is this balance of heritage craftsmanship and modern reliability that makes it the natural choice to drive the Céad 126.
