Irridescent silver bangle mechanical watch
______________________
A fine line between jewellery and timekeeping.
This vintage Diarex bangle watch blurs the line between jewellery and watchmaking. Its 27 mm case and dial are both crafted from silver, the surface etched with a radiating texture that catches light in shifting patterns. The open bangle design curves cleanly around the wrist, worn more like a piece of modernist sculpture than a conventional watch.
Inside, a Swiss A. Schild mechanical movement with 17 rubies keeps time with the quiet ritual of manual winding. Designed for a smaller wrist (approx. 15-16 cm), it is a rare meeting of precision engineering and understated elegance.
