This meteorite blasted into the Earth atmosphere some four ice ages ago into an area north of the Arctic circle. To make the dial, special machining and treatment is required to reveal the distinctive characteristic of this iron meteorite. The beautiful equilateral triangles that create the Widmanstätten pattern is a result of very slow cooling over millions of years, whereas the crystalline structure of the minerals within the core of the asteroid changes. Since the textures are organic and cannot be artificially reproduced, each single dial is a completely unique piece. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eThis watch is a limited edition of just 50 pieces.\u003c\/b\u003e The watch is powered by a highly precise COSC-certified Swiss Automatic movement and comes with the same tested and proven patented features as the popular Essence lineup, such as the Case Suspension System. \u003cb\u003eThis model comes with stainless steel case and an all solid link stainless steel bracelet.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eLuxurious.\u003c\/b\u003e Hand-finished with undiluted passion, the Essence is crafted with an execution only found in high-end timepieces.
