Gold Chronograph — Yellow Mother-of-Pearl Dial
40 MM GOLD-TONE CASE · YELLOW MOTHER-OF-PEARL · TACHYMETER BEZEL
Pale Yellow Shell With Green And Pink Hiding In It
A soft cream-yellow dial that shows other colours the moment it moves.
At first glance the dial is simply pale yellow, the colour of cream in the sun. Turn your wrist and it stops being simple. Soft bands drift across the shell, and flashes of green and pink appear where the light lands, then slip away again.
That is mother-of-pearl doing what a painted dial cannot. The colours are not printed on; they sit in the layers of the shell and only show when the light meets them at the right angle. Hold it still and it is calm. Move, and it comes alive.
The rest of the watch stays warm and simple — polished gold-tone case, engraved bezel, gold-tone hands and numerals — so nothing competes with the shell.
THE STRAP
A Bright Yellow Strap For A Gentle Dial
The leather says summer out loud; the dial says it quietly.
Put a pale dial on a pale strap and the watch disappears. This one goes the other way. The strap is a bright, sunny yellow in lizard-grain leather — small rounded scales, stitched in yellow and lined in cream — and it makes the soft shell above it look softer still.
Between the two, gold-tone metal keeps the yellows from clashing: the folding clasp, the polished 40 mm case, and the slim gold-tone rings round the three counters, which share the dial's pale yellow and carry black numerals to twelve at nine, thirty at three and sixty at six.
Applied gold-tone Roman numerals mark the hours, the four written IIII, with square gold-framed markers at three, six and nine and an applied gold-tone crown emblem at twelve. Gold-tone baton hands with white luminous strips sweep over a fine black minute track.
From Shell To Sunlit Dial
The shell is chosen for its hidden colours before anything is added to it.
A Thin Layer Of Shell
The dial is a thin disc of pale yellow mother-of-pearl, with its own soft bands running through it.
Picked For Its Flashes
Discs are chosen for an even cream-yellow that still shows green and pink when it tilts, so the colour plays across the whole face.
Gold On The Shell
Polished gold-tone Roman numerals go on at eight hours, with square gold-framed markers at three, six and nine and a crown emblem at twelve.
Timing Details
Three pale yellow counters are ringed in gold tone and numbered in black, a fine black minute track goes round the edge, and the luminous gold-tone hands are fitted.
Into Gold, Onto Yellow
The dial is cased in 40 mm of polished gold tone under the engraved tachymeter bezel, and the watch goes onto its bright yellow lizard-grain strap.

Before You Buy
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the dial real mother-of-pearl?
Is the dial real mother-of-pearl?
Yes. It is cut from shell, which is why it shows soft bands and flashes of green and pink as you tilt it. A painted dial would stay one flat yellow.
Is the dial as bright as the strap?
Is the dial as bright as the strap?
No, it is much softer: a pale cream-yellow. The strap is the bright one, which keeps the watch lively while the dial stays gentle.
Will my dial look exactly like the photos?
Will my dial look exactly like the photos?
Very close, but not identical. Every piece of mother-of-pearl has its own banding, so the flashes on your dial will fall in slightly different places. That is the sign it is shell.
What does the tachymeter do?
What does the tachymeter do?
It turns the chronograph into a speed reading. Start it, stop it after one kilometre or one mile, and the bezel shows your average speed in units per hour, from 400 down to 60.
Is it a men's or a women's watch?
Is it a men's or a women's watch?
Either. The 40 mm case is a unisex size, and the yellow suits anyone who likes a watch with some sunshine in it.
What movement is inside?
What movement is inside?
A high-precision automatic chronograph movement. It winds itself from the motion of your wrist, needs no battery, and the two pushers start, stop and reset the timer.
Does it need a battery?
Does it need a battery?
No. It is automatic — it winds from the motion of your wrist. Left off for a couple of days it stops, and a minute back on the wrist restarts it.
How long does delivery take?
How long does delivery take?
