About this deal
It was in 1955 that a small group of men were commissioned by the Chinese government to craft the first Chinese mechanical watch, the WuXi watch. This model laid the foundation for endless others, though it was only a prototype. Most notable of the Perception is the guilloché dial that is individually crafted by Master Cheng, the sole guilloché master craftsman of China. Offered with a grey, salmon, or ice blue dial, Atelier Wen achieves a contemporary look with many traditional Chinese details that you may miss at first glance but will undoubtedly appreciate upon closer look.
