Champagne dial, cold hands

By Hannah Lindqvist, Stockholm ยท

Two-tone used to be a dirty word. Then the eighties came back.

Champagne dial, yellow gold and steel, 28 mm. It's warm-looking, and that matters to me in a country where the sky is the colour of wet concrete for four months a year. The same 2236 with 55 hours, 100 m and 10.5 mm thick as the steel Lady-Datejust. Same issue too: 28 mm on my wrist reads as jewellery. That's fine if jewellery is what you want.

13,100 dollars and up, mostly for the gold. I'd wear it to a dinner. I'd never wear it ski touring, because a gold bezel scraped by a ski pole is just sad.
