METROPOLIS MARS

Metropolis Mars – A mars fragment on the wrist





Metropolis Mars offers an innovative creation featuring a resolutely modern structure. A high-tech capsule at 3 o'clock houses an authentic Mars meteorite, perfectly visible to the naked eye. The surrounding dial faithfully reproduces a relief engraving of the mars’ surface and its most famous volcanoes: Olympus Mons, Ascraeus Mons, Pavonis Mons and Arsia Mons. Craftsmanship is omnipresent in this creation. The NEO case, with its original shape and avant-garde design, is entirely crafted in rose gold. Everything is arranged around two stylised, openworked bridges faming the movement container.





The three-dimensional radiance of this model is accentuated by a weightless dial that appears to be floating in mid-air. It took more than two years of development to create the facets of the hour-markers that set the light dancing from one to another. The colour contrast is accentuated by the lacquer applied to each hour-marker.

The exclusive and bespoke presentation case has been specially designed for Metropolis Mars in the style of a leather-bound first edition typical of nineteenth-century works of speculative fiction and exploration. The Metropolis Mars presentation case is punched in the shape of a Martian crater – in the middle of which a second fragment of Martian meteorite is sealed.
