The result is a more conservative, but also more classic design. Inside, the Loews is still sporting a Seiko Mecha-Quartz movement, allowing for sweeping chrono-seconds and instant chronograph reset.

The Loews will come in three different finishes; polished, brushed and polished, and matte PVD.

Looking at the dial you?ll find the elements you expect for the concept. The primary index consists of applied markers for the hours, around which you?ll find a p...
