The first creation features a reproduction on the dial of a world map draw up in this age of discovery.
The three traditional hands are enriched by another patented hand indicating the Sun’s position above the Earth: by keeping track of the longitudes appearing on an external ring, the user can always tell at which point on the globe it is noon.
The Magellan 1521 attracted due attention at the time of its launch and won an honourable second place in the Jury Prize of the 2003 Watch of the Year awards. Since then, it has been interpreted in versions exploring new worlds, while all housed within a unique structural concept.
Northern Hemisphere watches are available in steel, pink gold and yellow gold versions.
