CREATING THE BEAUTIFUL BLACK DIAL

The new Limited-Edition M34 F8 Date with black dial depicts the Perseid meteor shower cascading across the night sky. The stunning effect is achieved by utilising nanoparticle metal multilayering technology, a world’s first* in the field of watchmaking, when used to create a watch dial pattern. The technique involves injecting ink composed of nanometre-sized ultra-fine metal particles several times onto the dial. The result is extremely delicate, elaborate dials with a sense of depth and shifting colour patterns, which cannot be achieved using more conventional pad printing methods.

In addition, the hairline and mirror finishing on the hands and indices, along with the diamond-cut frame of the date window adds a sharp contrast to the black background, enhancing the dynamic feel of the dial alongside the meteor design.
