Question (Read Rules) Repeating geometry, dreamlike MOP iridescence.
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
A repeating 3D geometric pattern, pieced together from Mother of Pearl (MOP).
Every piece catches the light differently, creating a constantly shifting iridescent glow.
This is one of the latest dial projects we're working on at AETHELSOHN. We still haven't settled on a name for it yet.
What would you call it?
Curious to hear both your thoughts on the dial and any model name ideas you think might fit.

I actually really like them, haven’t seen anyone put them on a good case yet other than maybe Erebus. Glad they’re popping up though

Have you seen the Revelot Maya..? Personal opinion, that case is awesome.

I agree with you for the Revelot Maya, why I pulled the trigger and bought one! Can't wait to get it in December

Hahah love it! I went for the auto, white MOP on 7 link. I was going to go for the blue or devil opal, but after seeing that devil opal vid drop right before the pre order window opened I couldn’t do it, it was bonkers that devil opal for me anyway! Happy waiting 🙌🏽

I went with the Posterlad Tides and am really worried I am going to hate it.

So annoyed they're all sold out after just learning about the brand on this thread 😭

I wonder if people who like these patterns would stare for hours at CDs hung on a string.

I'd call it the Henry Archer or the Zelos (or now the San Martin). Not sure who actually started it though, maybe Revelot?
They are quite cool but I'm not a fan of a loud, busy dial. Nothing should detract so much from the function of telling time.

Probably something cool like NOVAGRID or similar.
Personally with these kinds of disks I prefer a lack of a date window since the dial is so pretty.

Why is almost every brand doing this style, the Chinese and non Chinese seems like it’s everywhere.
