Just a week after unveiling the Visionnaire OC Limited Edition, Corniche is already back with a follow-up — the Visionnaire Rose Gold with Sand Dial. It seems this new rectangular series isn’t a one-off after all, but rather the start of a growing collection that Corniche is introducing piece by piece.

The latest release keeps the same elegant, compact form factor that made the OC Limited Edition such a hit, but trades the crisp steel case for a warm sandblasted rose-gold finish. The result is a version that feels more refined and luxurious.

A Fresh Take on a New Design

The Visionnaire design language is unmistakable: rectangular, clean, and architectural, with proportions that strike the balance between classic and contemporary. At 39.5 × 24 mm, the case size feels refined without disappearing on the wrist, and its 7.4 mm thickness keeps it effortlessly wearable. The sandblasted texture adds depth and character, diffusing reflections while highlighting the case’s sculpted edges.

Corniche pairs that case with a new “Sand” dial, a tone that perfectly complements the warmth of the rose-gold PVD. It’s subtle, minimalist, and very Corniche — no unnecessary details, just a clean two-hand layout, faceted hour markers, and those elegant Dauphine-style hands. It’s finished off with sapphire crystal featuring seven layers of anti-reflective and anti-fingerprint coating, keeping the dial crisp in all lighting.

Everyday Refinement

The Visionnaire series continues to mix luxury cues with everyday practicality. Inside beats a Miyota quartz movement, chosen to maintain the thin profile. The watch is rated for 50m of water resistance, so it’s perfectly fine for day-to-day use, even if it’s clearly meant for more elegant occasions.

A nice touch is the Japanese cotton-hemp strap by Fujikinbai, the same style used in the OC Limited Edition. It’s a small but distinct choice — textured, lightweight, and a bit unexpected compared to your usual leather strap. It reinforces Corniche’s focus on subtle luxury through material feel and design execution rather than flash.

The Start of a Series

What’s interesting here isn’t just the colorway itself but what it signals. Corniche seems to be rolling out this new Visionnaire line gradually — first the OC Limited Edition, now this Sandblasted Rose Gold & Sand variant, and likely more to come soon. That approach gives each colorway its own spotlight and builds anticipation for what’s next.

If this is the direction Corniche is heading, we might see the Visionnaire grow into one of their core lines — a family of compact, rectangular watches that blend Art-Deco influences with the brand’s modern minimalism.

Final Thoughts

The Visionnaire in Sandblasted Rose Gold & Sand is a classy evolution of Corniche’s newest silhouette. Warm, textured, and refined, it feels like the perfect next step for the brand’s growing rectangular lineup.

What do you think of Corniche’s gradual rollout for the Visionnaire series? Would you like to see more finishes like brushed steel or polished black next?
