Summary
- Atelier Wen unveils Perception V3, powered by the French Pequignet EPM03 calibre with Chinese‑inspired finishing

Atelier Wen has unveiled the Perception V3, the latest addition of its integrated‑bracelet sports watch offerings. Originally launched in 2022 to demonstrate that Chinese craftsmanship could rival the world’s finest, the Perception collection is defined by its intricate hand-turned guilloché dials crafted by the workshop of master artisan Cheng Yucai. The new V3 series represents the fullest expression of the brand’s unique identity by shifting the focus to its internal mechanics.
The Perception V3 is offered in three dial variants featuring the brand’s signature écailles de poisson (fish-scale) pattern: returning favorites “Piāo” ( “缥”) in ice-blue and “Xiá” (霞) in salmon, alongside the collection’s first new dial color in four years, “Yún” (筠) in bamboo green. These dials are housed within a 40mm case crafted from 904L stainless steel, measuring an updated thickness of 10.4mm.
For the first time, the timepiece is powered by the Pequignet EPM03 caliber, a high-performance French movement, which has been meticulously customized with decorative finishing that integrates traditional Chinese cultural motifs directly into the caliber. The bracelet continues this architectural language with hexagonal center links and individually chamfered polished bevels.
The Perception V3 is joining Atelier Wen’s offerings as a permanent, non-limited addition. Each variant priced at $4,850 USD and available to order through the brands’ website, with the first batch of deliveries scheduled to begin in late July 2026.
