GALLERY TWO BLUE Grieb & Benzinger’s calling card design remains a deft touch with the rose engine. Migrating beyond the dial, the guilloche patterns that make the G&F watches so recognizable have been added to movement elements visible through the front aperture. These two new beauties are from the new Blue Chip collection. The Blue Polaris featured here with a guilloche’ enhance bezel is crafted in solid 950 platinum, while its darker “Midnight” Polaris counterpart is crafted in an 18kt white gold case with a black diamond studded bezel. Both feature a blued sterling silver crescent in an amazing display of engraved elegance. Both versions house a fully decorated and modified Swiss manual wind movement. A full series of Blue Chips can be seen on the G&B web-site with prices ranging from around $45,000-$85,000 depending on the model. 16 WRISTWATCH RISTWATCH | 2016
