Speake-Marin unveils a new variant of its Openworked Dual Time complication. As its name suggests, the Openworked Dual Time Terracotta watch stages the extraordinary composition of movement mechanics on a dial with a terra-cotta-like look and feel. A manually applied frosting makes for a magnificent background that creates a beautiful play of light and shadow.

The Piccadilly case, a signature of the Geneva-based independent brand that is inspired by ancient marine chronometers and was revamped in 2017 by renowned designer Eric Giroud, is crafted from 5 polished-brushed titanium and available with a diameter of 38mm and 42mm. Both iterations measure 12.35mm thick and are equipped with a white rubber strap. 
The presentation of the new Openworked Dual Time Terracotta is based on a complex architecture. It is built on several levels and is characterized by the utmost care for all its surfaces. The openworked main dial and the small seconds counter are decorated with a matte finish that allows special lighting effects, and are given a terracotta color with a hint of orange thanks to a positive PVD coating.
