Awake Son Mài - Silver Leaf - Moonlight Blue.
I'm selling because it's just a smidge too big for my very tiny wrists. It's been worn maybe five times. The pictures don't do the dial justice.
From Awake:Inspired by moonlight and the “blue hours”, this dial blends several blue pigments for a unique intensity. From airy light blue to mysterious midnight blue, it exudes a soothing energy and an almost meditative calm. Discreet yet rich in nuances, it embodies sobriety and elegance, while evoking the poetic transition between day and night.
The result of our constant experimentation with new techniques to extract their quintessence and fuel our creativity, the dials of these five new versions recall the magnificent "Vignette" dials, emblematic of the 1970s and 1980s, and their "smoky gradient" effects, drawing attention to the center by creating a strong contrast with the surroundings.
The term "Vignette," borrowed from photography and optics, originally referred to a lens defect that reduced the light intake at the periphery of the image, leaving the center brighter.
Transposed to our vision of watchmaking, this aesthetic becomes an asset: a 10-hour creative process to create, by hand, this unique visual depth and chromatic intensity, generated by subtle color transitions achieved through different pigments and a meticulous layering of lacquer, irrevocably drawing the eye to its center.
