Our Thoughts

The Stainless Steel and Rose Gold version is a beautiful interpretation of a time only watch with an exquisitely crafted dial, case, bracelet, and an haute-horology movement. It can stand shoulder to shoulder with equivalent watches from A. Lange & Söhne, Audemars Piguet, Patek Philippe, and Vacheron Constantin. It possesses the same attributes I used when describing the limited-edition Platinum Stone Blue version – discreet, pure class, and understated. Yet it offers something more – accessibility. Its price of CHF 28K is literally a bargain for a watch at this level and should be a signal to other haute-horology brands to keep this genre of watchmaking exciting.
