A precious silver-plating technique creates an uneven pure white surface that receives and reflects light from all directions. This is followed by accurate machining and drilling, careful letter printing, and delicate hand-setting of the logo, indices and watch hands. A dedicated craftsperson deploys their highly skilled expertise at each stage.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe ‘Snowflake’ case is finished with our in-house Zaratsu polishingan art that takes many years to master.
