🌿 Design & Aesthetic

What immediately sets this watch apart is its ornamental golden frame, a sculptural bezel inspired by laurel wreaths, berries, and foliage. These detailed, botanical motifs give the watch a mythical, almost regal presence on the wrist – like something a modern-day muse would wear. The matte-gold finish on the frame contrasts beautifully with the satin champagne sunburst dial, adding both texture and elegance.

Minimal golden dot indices and sleek hands let the case design take the spotlight, while maintaining subtle readability.

🖤 Strap & Comfort

The black strap adds a grounded, wearable contrast to the gold drama of the case. It’s made from a fuzzy-textured woven fabric with a genuine leather underside, offering both tactile appeal and long-term durability. The golden buckle carries an engraved “M” – a subtle branded nod to M-Watch’s signature.
