You can pretty much count on whatever you pick from their collections looking alive on the wrist. Whether it is the Son Mai Silver Leaf “Atlantis Blue” handcrafted in Vietnam using ancestral Son Mai lacquer technique and pure silver leaf gilding or the Guilloche Main with vibrant hand-turned guilloché decoration, every model finds a way to play with finishes. In line with this is the Son Mai Frosted Leaf Royal Blue, and Awake this time has added pure gold leaf to its repertoire for the first time, pairing it with rich blue lacquer for this 200-piece limited-edition model.
