Designer
Jörg Hysek
Jörg Hysek left Rolex and Seiko's European studios to build a design practice in Geneva, giving houses such as Vacheron Constantin, Breguet, Seiko and TAG Heuer their sculptural, architecture-led cases before founding his own brand, HD3.
Historical significance
Credor Node 37 mm Blue 18k sits within Credor's Node line, introduced in 2017. It carries the house codes established since 1974 — 18k yellow gold case, blue "grande tapisserie" dial and eco-drive solar quartz — and is one of the references collectors use to date the evolution of the collection.
Interesting facts
- The movement's bridges are decorated even where they will never be seen once the watch is cased.
- The reference was originally planned as a one-year run and stayed in the catalogue for well over a decade.

Brand history
Credor has spent more than 52 years refining a single idea: a watch should outlive its owner. From the earliest workshop pieces to today's Eichi, the house has balanced technical ambition with a recognisable design language, and its collections remain among the most closely followed by collectors worldwide.
Seiko established Credor in 1974, working from Japan at a time when precision was measured by hand. The founder's obsession with finishing and accuracy still defines every Credor calibre produced today.
