THE WATCH

Presented in Two Executions - Elegant & Darth

Legare-Elegant-Wrist-Vertical-Elegant-FV

Elegant: Untreated German Silver

The Elegant version features a mirror-polished case, with contrasting brushed and sand-blasted finishes on all edges and bevels. The movement is crafted from untreated German Silver. Over time, this material will start to patina to show a very beautiful gold hue. The idea of a watch transforming over time, the more it interacts with its wearer.

The Elegant version features extra-thick, high-contrast Côtes de Genève decoration across the mainplate and the three bridges. All angles are mirror polished and extra thick, as are the countersinks for all screws. The two escape wheel bridges display handmade inner angles perfectly framed by the sapphire seconds subdial.

Hands: Stamped steel base, flame-blued, mirror-polished.

Strap: Hand-stitched gray Alcantara, 20mm × 16mm, quick release pin bar at lugs and buckle.

Darth: True Sandblasting

The Darth features a stealthily brushed case with mirror-polished angles and bevels. The movement is German Silver and has been true sand-blasted, producing a much more luminous sparkle than laser engraved patterns. It is then coated in black ruthenium, which creates a stunning gray hue with hints of blue.

The Darth case is entirely mirror polished first before the surfaces are brushed. While it is very stealthy, every single edge or bevel is mirror polished, which creates an incredible visual impact. You will never find two of the same surface treatments meeting each other at an edge.

Hands: Stamped steel base, flame-blued, mirror-polished.

Strap: Hand-stitched blue Cordova fabric, 20mm × 16mm, quick release pin bar at lugs and buckle.
