Overview

Snow-set white gold with a mother-of-pearl centre

The white gold case is snow set across the bezel and caseband, and the dial-centre plate holds a mother-of-pearl panel within a set frame. Nacre and white gold sit close in tone, so the watch reads almost monochrome apart from the gold hands.

The strap is dark blue rubber.

Design and engineering

  • Mother-of-pearl dial centreA nacre panel cut and set into the centre plate; the material’s layered structure produces the iridescence, so the play of light shifts with the angle of the wrist.
  • Snow settingStones of differing diameters are placed to fill the surface without a repeating grid, so that no metal shows between them. It is a technique rather than a point on the coverage scale that runs from unset through one row and mid to full.
  • Oversize dateSemi-instantaneous, placed horizontally under 12 o’clock, driven by two skeletonised calendar discs over a white field.
  • Function selectorA push-button at 4 o’clock selects winding, neutral and hand-setting with a single push; an aperture at 4 o’clock shows W, N or H. A second push-button at 10 o’clock corrects the date.
  • Patented stem-crown assemblyThe crown is part of the case rather than the movement, sealed with an Alcryn® O-ring and collar, so no crown attachment penetrates to the calibre.
  • Variable-geometry rotorHeavy external outside edge and edge ring in ARCAP, weight segment in heavy metal, ceramic ball bearings and a OneWay® winding system, allowing the winding rate to be matched to the wearer.
