Bronze for a watchmaking substance is becoming increasingly popular, with its distinctive vintage looks and one of a kind patina developing over time. The Hublot “art of fusion” design concept is very much at play here with a combination of materials such as 18k polished yellow gold screws supplying a subtle visual comparison in the brushed bronze case and matte black skeletonized dial.

Both the hour and minute hands are filled with luminescent material to the tip and partially cut away at the bottom, to better display the vulnerable gears of Hublot’s Unico movement beneath. This combined with extensive usage of lume for the hour markers, chronograph hands, quarter-hour “pips” on the minutes enroll, and hour “pips” on the hours register should make for good night readability.

Meindl has been a family-run tanner and boot maker since 1683, and their present factory in Kirchanschöring, Bavaria, has been in operation for over 300 years. The straps of each watch are hand-crafted using the family’s ancestral techniques, with each individual deer hide taking 3 or 4 months. Traditional sewing methods produce a three-dimensional effect for the deer head insignia, which functions to improve the visual allure of this eye as a whole.
