Raymond Weil Introduces A Vintage Inspired Tribute To Watchmaking

RAYMOND WEIL pays homage to the rich heritage and traditions of horology while celebrating the simplicity of refined design. Launching the Millesime Automatic Central Seconds Anthracite Sector Dial Watch the brand takes on a vintage aesthetic. The anthracite sector dial, located beneath a vintage-inspired sapphire crystal glass-box, has been refined to the highest degree. The hours and minutes are eloquently conveyed with silver-toned hands, lined with vintage yellow Super-LumiNova. The sector dial presents the hours, minutes and seconds periods on discrete tracks, augmenting readability.

A closer inspection of the dial reveals contrasting finishes, the hour track is smooth, the light blue minute track is snailed and the central area of the dial is adorned with a delicate vertical brush. The bezel is decorated with a vertical satin-brush that contrasts wonderfully with the highly polished bevel nearby. This juxtaposition of two finishes reinforces the overall level of finishing. A sapphire caseback affords sight of the self-winding movement within and the “W-shaped” oscillating weight, RAYMOND WEIL’s horological signature.
