Watches with Cloisonné dial, which used to be considered
as a symbol of wealth and had to be ordered specially, have always
fascinated top watch brands in the world, and made them eager
to produce such masterpieces of their own. Shellman should actually
be named first in the list of such brands. And finally, the brand
encountered the magnificent Shippou ware craftsmen and realized
its longtime dream to produce an exotic and unique, beautiful
watch.
To produce World Time Minute Repeater with Cloisonné dial
requires the following process : surrounding a silver dial with silver
wire, glazing and coloring it carefully by handcrafting, and baking
it at over 800 degrees. After polishing the dial thoroughly, the
masterpiece, Cloisonné dial, is sent to markets all over the
world, and this Shippou ware technique with wires is actually similar
to the method of creating traditional Cloisonné dials.
Shellman became a first watchmaker to depict a world map on a Cloisonné dial,
and it took more than 300 trial dials until it was completed. The
molding, cubic effect and hue with mixing dyestuff and delicate glazing
will certainly make watch lovers extremely ecstatic. |
