CARTIER TANK LOUIS CARTIER
Cartier brings a new radical elegance buoyed by monochromatic dials following last year's revival of the Tank Louis Cartier. This year's iteration sports an anthracite grey dial that complements the signature rose gold case. An innovative electrochemical engraving technique and galvanised finishing add vibrancy and richness to the dial's shade and depth. The end result is sections of reflective effects and optical variations that glistens under different light angles.
SEIKO ASTRON SSJ012
Seiko showcases beauty and brains in a single package with the Seiko Astron GPS solar. The whiz kid on the block connects to various GPS networks to provide unrivalled accuracy and adjusts itself automatically to any time zone you are in. It takes an equally impressive approach to its demeanour as the rose gold and black ceramic is a tried and tested approach with a timeless appeal.
