The Watch
Here we have an exquisitely designed 2015 Speake-Marin Piccadilly Serpent Calendar Blue 10006-04 with a 42mm titanium case, screwed-in lugs with a lug-to-lug length of 53mm and a case thickness of 10.5mm give the watch an impressive wrist presence. The polished and brushed round case has an onion-style signed crown, and a stepped polished bezel holds a domed sapphire crystal AR coated above a multi-layered white and blue lacquer dial. Large Roman numerals mark the hours, and in the centre, a blued steel disc with the date numerals around its outer edge, and an attractive serpent pointer indicates the date. Elegant Speake-Marin spade hands complemented by a tapered second hand sit majestically in the centre. On the reverse an exhibition case back with sapphire crystal, inside an automatic Hybrid Vaucher 3002, 28 jewels, 28,800 beats per hour, this in-house movement has Rhodium plating, a Tungsten rotor, ceramic ball bearing, and circular-grained finishing.
