Stanhope II

Hand-wound cushion case watch with piqué textured white dial and choice of strap.

Add Cushion Case STEEL BRACELET WITH BUTTERFLY CLASP + €180.00

EFFORTLESS STYLE

The original Stanhope was first released in 2018, as part of the hand-wound collection. Now reimagined into an all new, highly polished, 3 part construction cushion case design, fresh for 2022.

The dial is built using a complex multi-layer dial technique, creating an intricate piqué textured off-white central plate, punched in for the sweeping sub-dial at 6 and cut-in around the circumference to create the hour markings. The raised polished steel numerals at 12, 3 and 9 along with the hour batons, infilled with midnight blue, set off the textured plate. Raised wedge marker details on the hour indexes are finished in Super-LumiNova dots, linking to the rounded index hands with matching inset Super-LumiNova on both hour and minute hands to add a further depth to the Stanhope design after dark.

FLOWING LINES

At 38.5mm the case sits comfortably on any wrist, with the lines of the new cushion case architecture creating a barrel-sided design that hugs the dial. Uncommonly, the case is skilfully made up of a three-piece construction; case back, main case body and bevelled bezel, topped with an anti-reflective sapphire glass - resulting in a compelling piece from any view when handling. The case has an entirely polished finish, with the exception of the bezel chamfer, which is brushed so as to provide some sharp definition between the main case and the bezel.
The straps create the illusion of being integrated into the bat ear lug design, due to a clever scalloped inner case between the lugs for a snug fit. This is a case that stands out from the norm, with classic understated elegance.

Powered by the modified no-date SELLITA SW216-1 Elaboré Grade movement, notable for its thinness, reliability and robustness. Finished with blued screws and a bespoke Farer arrow pattern, across the micro-engraved bridge. Delivering 45 hours power reserve when the calibre is fully manually wound.

"A COLLABORATION OF CLASSIC AND CONTEMPORARY STYLES."

STORY

Named after Lady Hester Stanhope, dubbed 'one of the most pioneering women in history’. Born in 1776, the English socialite and adventurer blazed a horse trail across the Middle East, a century before TE Lawrence, and her exploits were celebrated by writers and artists including George Eliot, James Joyce, Picasso and WH Auden. Lady Hester's archaeological expedition to Ashkelon in 1815 is considered the first modern excavation in the history of Holy Land archaeology.
