Introducing the new Speake-Marin Openworked Dual Time Terracotta timepiece.

The impressive display reveals the excellence of the micro-mechanics, set in a unique and striking architecture, adorned with ever-changing details and finishes. The large apertures and skeletonized bridges on the barrel and micro-rotor create a three-dimensional, multi-layered structure, further enhanced by the small seconds counter at 1 o’clock.
