Speake-Marin Dual Time Titanium

Drawing inspiration from contemporary architecture, the Speake-Marin Openworked collection integrates angular lines and geometric patterns, creating a distinctive blend between tradition and modernity. These skeletonised timepieces showcase the intricacies of their mechanisms through openworked dials. The collection ranges from time-only models to more complex iterations featuring dual-time and tourbillon complications, showcasing their capacity to innovate while maintaining a cohesive design philosophy.

Design And Iterations

The defining feature of the Openworked collection lies in its unconventional dial architecture. A standout feature is the small seconds sub-dial, asymmetrically positioned between the one and two-o’clock markers. This design choice enhances the visibility of the exposed movement while offering a unique take on traditional layouts. The Piccadilly case, a signature Speake-Marin design since 2003, has been updated for the collection with a slimmer profile and more ergonomic lugs, enhancing wearability without sacrificing its iconic identity. The cases, available in grade five titanium or red gold, cater to a variety of preferences. While the titanium models offer a lightweight and durable option, the red gold editions add a touch of classic sophistication.

The collection features notable iterations like the Dual-Time model introducing practicality with a second-time zone and a retrograde date, enhanced by vibrant colour accents such as Mint and Lime, adding a modern twist to the classic design. Another distinguished series is the Openworked Sandblasted, which brings a refined aesthetic with its textured dials. The sandblasted finish enhances the visual depth of the dial, perfectly complementing the skeletonised movement beneath. These iterations reflect the brand’s dedication to blending technical precision with bold, contemporary design elements. Each model in the collection is powered by the SMA01 calibre, an in-house COSC-certified movement featuring a micro-rotor. This calibre not only ensures reliable performance but also serves as a foundation for additional complications, such as the dual-time iteration, for example, enhances functionality with a second-time zone and retrograde date, accompanied by vibrant accents in Mint and Lime hues. This playful yet sophisticated design reflects the brand’s ability to merge technical expertise with artistic flair.
