New Swiss Record Set in Speed Climbing

In a remarkable achievement for the sport of speed climbing, Nicolas Hojac, a seasoned climber from Switzerland, set a new national record by completing the ascent of the three iconic north faces of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau mountains in a record time of just 15 hours and 30 minutes. This feat, accomplished on April 5, 2025, shattered the previous record, which was nearly 25 hours, showcasing Hojac's exceptional skill and preparation.

Hojac's successful climb was not without its challenges, as he faced difficult conditions characterized by ice and snow across a total climbing length of approximately 3,500 meters. Nevertheless, the accomplished climber executed both his ascents and descents with remarkable precision and efficiency. Throughout the climbs, he relied on his trusted timepiece, the TITONI Seascoper 300 Ice Blue DLC, which played a crucial role in timing his performance.

In recognition of this significant achievement, TITONI has announced the release of a limited edition of the Seascoper 300 Ice Blue DLC watch. This special edition is limited to just 200 pieces and features an eye-catching ice blue dial, reflecting the icy conditions Hojac encountered during his record-setting climbs. The watch's case back is adorned with an engraving of the Eiger's north face, marking the first and most challenging ascent of the day.

TITONI, a distinguished Swiss watch manufacturer based in Grenchen, has been crafting high-quality timepieces for four generations. The Seascoper 300 Ice Blue DLC is equipped with the robust and precise Sellita SW200 chronometer movement, ensuring reliability during extreme conditions. Its durable casing, rated to 30 bar of pressure, features an ultra-hard DLC coating and anti-reflective sapphire crystal, making it ideal for adventurous pursuits.

The watch's black ceramic bezel, resistant to shocks and scratches, complements the polished finish of the stainless steel case, while the bright ice blue dial ensures excellent readability even in demanding sports environments. The contrasting black hands and strong luminous markers provide optimal visibility.

The limited edition Seascoper 300 Ice Blue DLC (Reference 83300 B-BK-R-718) is available for purchase at a price of EUR1,800 through the official TITONI website and selected retail partners.
