A Dance of Brilliance
700 lines are meticulously hand engraved by our artisan Qin. The process is highly labor intensive, which requires unwavering focus and steady hands. Each silver dial embodies a timeless connection between art and craftsmanship.
Layering Tradition
The artisan carefully applies grand feu enamel to the engraved silver dial, a process that may require up to eight layers.
From Heat to Beauty
As the dial is fired in the kiln at 800 degrees Celsius, the enamel layers meld together, creating a stunning, glass-like surface. This step is where the dial’s brilliance is truly born.
The Final Touch
After firing and cooling, each enamel dial will be hand polished to even the surface and unveil the final result.
A Testament to Craft
Held under careful scrutiny, the polished enamel dial undergoes its final inspection. This step ensures that every detail, from the engraving to the enamel’s finish, is nothing short of extraordinary.
Crafting Legibility
The dial receives its final details through pad printing, with numerals and indices applied in perfect alignment. This step ensures the dial is both aesthetically pleasing and easy to read.
The Blue Transformation
The hand undergoes a transformation as it is heated to a rich blue color. This step highlights the artistry and precision behind every detail of the timepiece.
Final Inspection
The completed watch is examined, ensuring every detail - from the enamel dial to the polished case - is crafted with care and attention.
