The collection’s latest addition is a captivating green dial which is made from the precious stonemalachite. The name is said to derive from the Ancient Greek word ‘malache’, which means mallow, asthe stone closely resembles the color of the leaves of the mallow plant. Malachite’s spiritual meaning isone of transformation and is said to be the ‘Essence of Joy’. Without going too deep into its metaphysicalproperties, we feel that by just looking at the malachite’s swirls, rings and intricate marbling isrejuvenating and uplifting. The distinctive, patterned coloration, in variousshades and swirls from lightgreen to almost black make every single dial a unique piece,non-identical to any other. Just like the othervariations of the Essence lineup, the new dial is explicitly unisex.While looking at the dial for toolongmight feel hypnotic, a quick glance is enough to easily read time. Applied indices, deep-filled with Super-LumiNova® BGW9 and mirror-polished bevels provide legibility day and night.
