Zanetti
The Face Of Wabi Sabi
www.zannetti.it
Rather than striving for sterile perfection, Zanetti’s jade dials
are engraved and painted by hand in a way that celebrates the
imperfection of the natural material. Dappled with inclusions, two
variations of jade host the diamond arms of a compass rose over
a background of latitudinal and longitudinal arcs reminiscent of a
weathered ocean chart. Inside the simple but substantial 47mm steel
case beats a beautifully dressed ETA 2824 Swiss Made automatic
movement with a hand engraved rotor and bridges decorated with
circular perlage and Geneva wave finishes. Add one or both to your
seafaring collection for $7,500 for the all steel and $10,500 for the
diamond bezel version. All are available at Grenon’s of Newport as
well as several other domestic retailers.
