Benzinger ONE, Patek Philippe for Tiffany & Co.: the design

After the first fitting of the naked movement, the next step of the Benzinger ONE project is the design.

The first photograph shows the design laid over the movement, seen from the dial side; it takes a little imagination to see what the result will be. The second shows the design of the dial side. The dial is only the outer ring, in 925 sterling silver with an original Breguet frost finish and hand guilloché, around the hours and minutes and around the small seconds. This leaves a clear view of the Patek Philippe movement, which will be hand-guilloché, hand-engraved and hand-skeletonised in the Benzinger style.

The back of the movement keeps the original shapes of its bridges, which will be finished entirely with hand guilloché.
