Los Angeles based watchmakers March LA.B, in collaboration with French boutique Colette, have released a limited edition pocket watch called the 1805 Imperial Phantom. The pocket watch is limited to only three pieces and is inspired by Napoleonic designs.
The 1805 Imperial Phantom pocket watch comes with a minimalist design and is finished in all-black. The watch has a stainless steel cases that received a black PVD treatment, the dial has three hands and raised hour markers, and features the March LA.B logo, all finished in black. The pocket watch is attached to a sleek looking black snakecoil chain.
The 1805 Imperial Phantom pocket watch comes in a 47.5mm case and is powered by an ETA 804.192 quartz movement which is a bit disappointing because a true pocket watch needs a mechanical movement. The pocket watch has an analog alarm and is water resistant to 50 meters. This limited edition timepiece is priced at €1,290 or about $1,700 US at today’s exchange rate.
