MECCANICHE VELOCI ICON PODIUM

Posted on by

Meccaniche Veloci presents a preview of its new version of the Icon collection: the Podium, with its distinctive four carbon-fibre dials. The lower two dials are skeletonised, allowing the technical details of the Manufacture calibre MV8802 – a movement designed in-house by Meccaniche Veloci and capable of simultaneously handling four time zones – to be admired.

The unmistakable 49-millimetre piston-shaped case comes in natural titanium for the Podium model.

The Icon Podium collection adds further technical appeal to a timepiece that embodies Meccaniche Veloci’s production philosophy where not a single detail is left to chance. The passion for watchmaking technology and the eternal inspiration of the world of engines combined with the certified 100% Swiss Made parts find a new expression in this collection. This new watch will be displayed at Baselworld exhibition from 20 to 26 March 2019.
