The watches importantly are aimed at those who want to have emblems of space and time on their wrist, and the versions feature rare fragments that have been hand cut. Three models of the Grande Seconde Off-Centered Meteorite will be offered and the company is planning to make only 88 pieces in a limited run. With high density and hardness the two main features of Meteorite, the company has utilized cutting-edge techniques to ensure the final timepieces are the best representations of the rock.As for the Grande Seconde Off-Centered Stromatolite version, it is composed of sedimentary rock that has fossils embedded in them. The pieces therefore are unique offerings which offer a slice of life that once existed on the earth around 3.5 billion years ago along with fossilized remnants. Characterized by a rich array of colors, the Stromatolite timepieces have a bold vibe which is quite different from the Grande Seconde Off-Centered Meteorite versions which are largely gray.When the original Grande Second was launched several years ago it had a striking dial. The Meteorite and Stromatolite models have retained the figure eight formation from the Grande Second’s dial and it is slightly “Off-Centered” with a tilt of 30°.Click on the slideshow to check out the timepieces.http://www.blouinartinfo.comFounder Louise Blouin Read more
