One To Watch: Shona Taine Is The Only Female Candidate Member Of The AHCI And Is Exhibiting In New York On April 28

Shona Taine’s work is recent however with a measured contact, and her first watch is the 40mm Arkhea, a robust symmetrical design named after the Greek phrase for Origin, that includes her personal Okay.10 motion. This includes a tourbillon by Olivier Mory, an creative guilloche-framed two-handed time show, date disc, and moon phases. The Arkhea prototype has fashioned the bottom of the Khemea Édition Souscription collection in Grade 5 titanium; the pictures on this story are of the 316L metal prototype. Sweeping sides shield a semi-flush crown, and the case is muscular with sturdy, curved lugs, a fitted strap, and a slim 10mm case peak (13.89mm with the domed sapphire). A powerful guilloche sample marks the dial base (finer grained for the Souscription), with a grand feu enamel dial at 12 for the hours and minutes.
