Description

Ressence has unveiled the Type 1DXB Dubai Edition, featuring an Arabic skeleton dial, as a remarkable addition to their collection. Made for the Dubai watch retailer, in celebration of Dubai Watch Week 2019, It is an artistic deviation from Ressence’s typically minimalist style.

The Type 1DXB maintains Ressence’s renowned orbital disc time display but incorporates a skeletonized dial designed with geometric patterns reminiscent of Arabic and Islamic traditional art. Rather than using Eastern Arabic numerals, the dial is uniquely Arabic.

Enhanced with a sand-colored matte finish and white Super-Luminova, the dial reveals the gears driving the distinct time display. They are part of a special Ressence module mounted on an ETA 2892 base movement.

The square 41mm case mirrors the Type 1 Squared design but is crafted from titanium instead of the standard steel. Keeping with Ressence tradition, the case back is used for time setting and winding, eliminating the need for a crown.

This is a limited edition of just 19 pieces.
