What to know

Toledano & Chan’s B/1 Dazzle applies the fragmented geometry of First World War naval camouflage to a Grade 5 titanium watch. CNC-engraved lines cross the dial, angular case and integrated bracelet, with frosted and satin-brushed finishes changing their contrast in the light. The asymmetrical sapphire crystal and left-side crown retain the B/1’s architectural identity.

Hodinkee’s October 12 report lists a 33.5mm case width, 50-metre water resistance and an automatic Sellita SW100 with a 42-hour reserve. The standard Dazzle costs US$7,700; a diamond-set Double Dazzle is also reported. Website sales are scheduled to begin October 24. Edition totals differ between the manufacturer page and reporting, so Chronolume has omitted those figures pending clarification.
