Description

The Model 3 Method is our most technically ambitious and collaborative watch project to date. Starting life in 2018 as a carved block of ash, we've translated the texture into enamel through high technology and traditional forms of making, pushing the boundaries of craft practices at every step.

The rippling texture of the dial started life as a block of wood, carved to create a unique and organic texture by Scottish artisan cabinet and trunk makers, Method Studio.

Through advanced 3D scanning and stamping processes, the wooden texture has been scaled down and translated into silver before being hand-enamelled in-house.

Slim case profile - The case design of the Model 3 is designed to accentuate the enamel dial. The case features a sleek bezel, slim profile, and lugs that subtly make reference to trench watches of years past.

Aqua - Thanks to the clean Scottish air, you’ll find an abundance of lichen clinging to rocks, trees and buildings right along our coastline. During the testing process to determine the best enamels for use on the Method dial, enameller Sally Morrison said the colour of this incredibly clear enamel reminded her of lichen; like its namesake, the appellation simply stuck.
