Marcu Initial pairs an anthracite pine-needle dial with diamond-tipped hands

The Initial makes its construction part of the display. A tall sapphire crystal meets the titanium case around a raised minute ring, while steel hands end in triangular diamonds. The anthracite dial carries a hand-worked pine-needle motif, giving the restrained two-hand layout a dense, irregular surface.

Jérôme Marcu’s manually wound JM01 movement places the barrel and balance along the same central axis. It runs at 18,000 vibrations per hour and supplies 50 hours of reserve. The 40 mm case is rated to 30 metres. Production comprises 33 watches across three dial colours, with eleven anthracite examples; the reported price is CHF59,000 excluding taxes.
