It features a soft and subtle pink dial encased in 36mm of stainless steel along with 18 micro gas tubes on the dial and hands, ensuring legibility no matter of the lighting environment.

Zenith chronomaster original diamonds

Zenith Chronomaster Original + Diamonds

Zenith has brought forward its infamous Chronomaster Original and has endowed it with a diamond shower. The end result is a beautifully proportioned mechanical timepiece that marries the worlds of traditional watchmaking with high-end jewellery. The two models are both delicate in nature and in stature. Both feature diamonds on the lugs and in place of the hour indices, where the first model features a soft blue aesthetic, and the other a darker grey aesthetic.

H moser cie heritage dual time

H. Moser & Cie Heritage Dual Time

Featuring H. Moser & Cie’s new HMC 809 automatic movement with a dual time function, the new Heritage Dual Time is a beautiful balance of old-school aesthetics meeting modern technologies. From the rich burgundy dial to the cathedral-like hands and numerals, the Heritage Dual Time is a fantastically prominent, loud and characteristically individual timepiece. It’s eccentric all the while being subtle and inconspicuous to the untrained eye. Certainly not a piece for everyone, I absolutely love it!
