Watch with a Natural Tiger Iron Dial


This watch features a dial cut and polished from a single solid piece of natural Tiger Iron, breaking free from the uniformity typical of mass-produced timepieces. Formed over hundreds of millions of years of geological activity, Tiger Iron is a mineral associated with meteoric iron; it possesses an intricate, naturally occurring pattern of gilded "tiger stripes" of varying density. No two dials are alike, meaning every watch bears a unique identity from the moment of its creation.

To produce a dial that meets exacting standards, the watchmaking team must first select premium raw Tiger Iron—free from cracks or blemishes—from tens of kilograms of rough stone. The material then undergoes over twenty manual processes, including slicing, rough grinding, fine polishing, and glazing, to fully reveal the stone's cool-toned, multi-layered metallic luster.

During daily wear, the subtle patterns on the dial appear to shift and flow like the stripes of a resting tiger as the angle of the light changes. Eschewing the ostentation of precious metal dials, it exudes a distinctive, sophisticated quality revealed in the subtle movement of the wrist. Perfectly complementing both formal and casual attire, it is a niche, collector-grade feature highly prized by seasoned watch enthusiasts.
