The bright black and steel dial is a new dial color added to the Daytona "126519LN" after the model change in 2023.

The sophisticated monotone contrast brings out a unique charm that is not found in other models.
In addition, the combination of the black Cerachrom bezel and the bright black x steel dial is reminiscent of the Daytona "Ref. 126529LN Le Mans". The combination of the 18K white gold case and Oysterflex bracelet is suitable for everyday use, and it is a watch that gives you a new charm of the evolved Daytona .

② [Vacheron Constantin] "Historique American 1921" "Ref. 82035/000G-B735"

The Historiques Américain 1921 is a very unique yet elegant model, characterized by its diagonally arranged dial.

The unique design, with a dial tilted at 45 degrees, was inspired by driver's watches from the 1920s, and combines functionality and style by allowing you to check the time while driving without turning your wrist, a design that still retains its timeless appeal today.
The grained silver-tone dial changes color subtly depending on the angle of the light, giving it a classical yet modern look. The Arabic numerals and hands not only perfectly blend vintage and luxury, but the 18KWG case enhances the shine of the silver dial, adding elegance to your wrist.
Equipped with the hand-wound movement "Cal. 4400 AS", the beautifully finished movement can be admired from the case back. Although it is a classical dress watch, the bold design of the diagonal dial gives it a unique presence that is unlike any other .

3. [Patek Philippe] "Aquanaut" "Ref. 5167A-001"

The Aquanaut model, Ref. 5167A-001, features a design that combines sportiness and elegance.

The black embossed dial has a three-dimensional look depending on the angle of the light, giving it a simple yet sophisticated impression. This three-dimensional texture has depth when you hold the watch in your hand, and the contrast of light and shadow changes beautifully depending on the viewing angle.
The combination of the stainless steel case and rubber strap gives a strong sporty impression, but Patek Philippe has managed to create a design that also has an elegant impression. The contrast between the polished and satin finishes of the case catches the light and makes the wrist look more three-dimensional, giving the watch a striking presence despite its simple design.
Another major attraction of this model is the excellent balance you feel the moment you pick it up, and the comfortable fit when you wear it.

④ [Vacheron Constantin] "Overseas" "Ref. 4520V / 210A-B128"

The Overseas Ref. 4520V/210A-B128 is a very elegant and sporty model that combines a sophisticated blue dial with functional beauty that is the ultimate in practicality.

The dial changes from a vibrant color to a deep blue depending on the angle of the light, and the sunburst finish creates a sense of depth and dimension. The beautiful brilliance of the dial changes with each angle, and can only be experienced by holding the watch in your hands.
In addition, the bezel features a Maltese cross motif unique to Vacheron Constantin, perfectly combining sportiness and luxury, making it a design that can be worn in a wide range of situations, from everyday use to business settings.
The bracelet is equipped with an "interchangeable strap system," which allows you to easily change between three types of straps: stainless steel bracelet, rubber strap, and leather strap. Since you can easily change the strap to suit the scene or season, this is a versatile timepiece that can be worn both on and off the job.
The beauty of the blue dial and the practicality of being able to change the straps make this a watch that is appealing to both parties. It is a timepiece that embodies modern elegance and can be worn in any situation .

⑤ [Patek Philippe] "Annual Calendar Moon Phase" "Ref. 4947/1A-001"

The "Annual Calendar" "Ref. 4947/1A-001" features a dial with a vertical and horizontal satin finish called Shandong silk finish.

Depending on the angle of the light, the vertical and horizontal lines shine delicately, giving off a luster like luxurious silk, and depending on the angle you look at it, it has a casual look like denim, which is its greatest charm. In addition, the Roman numeral indexes and leaf hands create a classical atmosphere, while the design is simple and timeless, which is also a feature of this model. The case and bracelet are made of stainless steel, and the elaborate polishing process highlights the contrast with the blue dial, making it easy to match with both casual and formal outfits.
