The customer who commissioned this watch liked the “Kauai” watch we made a few years ago, so he wanted the same type of construction but with the Welsh Dragon as the centerpiece. As with many custom pieces, we do research and look for inspiration for the art we will create for the customer’s review and subsequent approval.
The watch is an RGM Model 25 with our in-house solid gold winding rotor and stainless-steel case. The dial parts are made of solid silver with blue galvanic plating on the background center, which also has hand-made Guilloche from our straight-line engine. The dial is made of 5 pieces, not including the screws and the name plaques are made of solid rose gold. The dragon is hand-engraved with deep accents.
The end result exceeded our expectations and the customers, it’s truly a stunning and unique timepiece!
