At the upcoming Hands On Horology exhibition in London on 14th June, you’ll be able to find an exciting variety of watch brands displaying their latest creations and new releases. In fact, some brands are even showing up with debut launches such as the Boldr Polaris and our own Ball x Oracle Time Engineer II Dazzle. However, some brands are also producing exclusive editions that will strictly be available on the day, such as the Beaucroft Seeker Black Ice.
The new watch is a really cool interpretation of the Seeker that combines the pale blue gradient of the Ice Blue edition with the black PVD case of the limited-edition variant. It makes for a very striking visual with the white colour in the centre of the dial fading to blue around the peripheral edge before transitioning all the way to black as you reach the bezel and case. That case measures a svelte 37mm in diameter x 10mm thickness, positioning the Seeker as Beaucroft’s vintage proportion dress watch offering.
That aesthetic code is heightened by the very slim hour markers that overlap the layered, sector style design of the minute scale. The hands are equally elegant in a feuille design with the characteristic leaf shape, filled with lume for low light legibility. Housed beneath that dial and powering the three-hand display is the Miyota 9039 automatic, one of the most common microbrand movements for good reason.
The Beaucroft Seeker Black Ice is a limited edition of just 10 pieces, available exclusively at Hands On Horology with a price of £425. If you haven’t yet secured your ticket to Hands On Horology, you can do so here. It’s going to be a fantastic event, offering you the opportunity to get hands on with watches from brands like Beaucroft and beyond, taking place in Shoreditch’s Protein Studios on 14th June.
