There's nothing quite like the Antarctic Spider. A true conversation starter, this quirky 1970s-inspired design features a sector-style spider dial in a rich salmon tone. Eight crisp vertical baton indexes are linked by radial “legs” converging at the center — hence the nickname “Spider.” Sophisticated, eccentric, and graphically hypnotic, it’s a piece that turns heads and breaks conventions.
