SHOROKHOFF
63
“Sixty-three” revisits and updates a classic design into a new era
to create the flattest watch from Alexander Shorokhoff at 11.3mm
thin. The 40mm stainless 5atm steel case is complemented by a domed
sapphire glass on front, a flat sapphire on the back, and a classic dial
with a modern twist. Water resistant to 5 atm, the curvaceous dials
of the 63’s are available in dark blue, emerald green, Bordeaux red or
deep black. The rose gold plated indexes 20, 40 and 60 are precisely
made to follow the curvature of the dial. Along with a thin bezel, this
creates a bigger impact than the 40mm case might have you think.
This effect makes the watch wearable for both men and women.
The custom rotor on the Swiss ETA 2892.AS is engraved with an intricate
Shorokhoff style that counterpoints the austerity of the simple façade. The
63 is offered on your choice of a leather strap for $1,650, or a Milanese
bracelet at $1,950 at www.grenons.com
