Speake Marin introduces the RIPPLES BLEU ROYAL, an ocean of hope. The heart of the watch reveals a highly exceptional calibre, the SMA03-T20 (previously featured in the 20th Anniversary watch). This calibre is associated with precious materials. However, Speake Marin has broken this rule to emphasize the emotional significance of time.
Description
Speake Marin has embraced its iconic hue, Royal Blue, for the first time in its history, adorning the dial of this exquisite, one-of-a-kind timepiece created exclusively for Only Watch. The RIPPLES BLEU ROYAL watch serves as a radiant tribute to hope, with its distinct and characteristic Speake Marin blue achieved through the meticulous process of blue physical vapor deposition (PVD) with a galvanic underlayer. The watch showcases a deeper shade of blue, artfully highlighting the placement of the small seconds subdial at 1.30 and creating a captivating interplay of subtle illumination. The hour and minute hands, gracefully shaped like hearts, are intricately rhodium-plated, and gently curved, while the small seconds hand boasts a rhodium-plated, and flat design.
The hand-polished indexes exude elegance and bestow a resplendent brilliance upon the dial. Traditionally associated with gold and precious materials in the realm of Speake Marin, the SMA03-T20 movement takes on a special role within the unique RIPPLES BLEU ROYAL model, meticulously crafted from steel, symbolizing the profound value of time in life. The solid steel case back, skillfully engraved by the talented hand of Boris Nemitz, proudly bears the inscription “Only Watch 2023, Unique Piece”, further accentuating the exceptional nature of this timepiece.
