I’ve covered Hublot All Black series a few months ago. Apparently, the company is not the only one which produces such All-Black timepieces. There are still more. One of them is the Swiss luxury watch manufacturer PIERRE DEROCHE which recently launches its SPLITROCK MDA FULL BLACK WATCH. But unlike its name suggest, black is not the solitary color of the watch. Instead, it also includes red color as the accents on the date indicator, on the small seconds hand as well as on its strap’s stitches.
In my opinion, compare to Hublot’s All Black Series, Pierre DeRoche’s is less consistent in applying the concept.
Anyway, the timepiece features a black PVD-treated 316L stainless steel case set with an anti-reflective sapphire crystal, sapphire back and a black crocodile leather strap. It measures Continue Reading »
I can’t speak French; so that when I saw the name of this elegant watch, I thought it refers to one of my favorite rock band from Japan –ラルク アン シエル Raruku an Shieru which is also known as L’Arc~en~Ciel. Apparently, I was wrong!

“Arc-en-ciel” is the French word for “Rainbow”. As for the GENTLEMAN ARC-EN-CIEL 40 mm WATCH, the name corresponds to the wide arched opening at 10 o’clock and its seven rainbow colors indicating the day of the week spelled out (here in Italian). Each day, the day-window displays the name of the day in different color, implying the user’s change of mood. Everyone can then give it its own symbolism. Continue Reading »
