What to know
L’Artisan d’Horlogerie and MINIM have combined their signatures in the Yang, a 40-piece collaboration assembled, finished and regulated in Belgium. Each dial centres on a thin slice of genuine rhodonite, whose rose tones and dark manganese veining make every example unique. A light mother-of-pearl outer ring frames the stone, while MINIM contributes the Chinese numerals and its distinctive handset. The polished 38mm stainless-steel case uses a domed sapphire crystal and a sapphire exhibition back.
Inside is the HZ5000A automatic micro-rotor movement, running at 28,800 vibrations per hour with a stated 42-hour power reserve, hacking seconds and hand-winding. A grey suede strap with pink accents completes the colour scheme. The Yang was priced at €1,049.49 and is now sold out, with every caseback individually numbered. Rather than a logo-led collaboration, the watch visibly merges MINIM’s dial architecture with L’Artisan’s stone work and Belgian hand assembly.
