The first CNC Guilloche done on a Crystallised Titanium dial. PVD coated for its brilliant blue color. Crystallised Titanium is a unique process which enlarges the natural crystalline structure of the metal, giving it a look unlike any other metal. Physical properties are very much like titanium with the same lightness to it.
