Coating can be amazing


This is our intense white dial. Its striking appearance is achieved through electroplating, a technique that has been tried and tested in many fields. The brass base plate is immersed in a series of electrolytic baths to coat it with very thin metallic layers. On this dial, we use gold, nickel and then silver. After the surface is brushed, it is submerged in a final bath to intensify the brightness of the white colour, revealed by the light. Electroplating protects, but above all, embellishes. Mastering this process also means demonstrating that it can be a unique form of art.
