What to know
MING’s 29.01 Dubai Edition extends Arabic script beyond hour markers to the city names and numbers of a world-time display. Sapphire layers and luminous HyCeram lettering float above a metallic 24-hour disc, while an additional ring identifies cities using daylight saving time. The result is a regional edition with a thoroughly reconsidered interface.
The 40 mm grade 5 titanium case is 11.9 mm thick and water-resistant to 50 metres. Schwarz-Etienne’s ASE 222 automatic micro-rotor calibre supplies about 70 hours of reserve. Created for Dubai Watch Week 2023 in 25 pieces, this edition is now sold out with deliveries complete, according to MING’s archive.
