MING 37.07 Monolith : subtlety in texture<\/h3>
\n

Although the 37.07 Monolith shares a lot of design elements with and is identical in size and proportions to the 37.07 Mosaic presented during last year\u2019s 5th <\/span>anniversary releases; it feels like a completely different watch. This is almost entirely down to changing the way the watch
interacts with light: whilst the Mosaic was a bright, luminous and reflective watch, those same concave polished surfaces are now matte black and hint at contour rather than reflecting large portions of their surroundings.<\/p>\n

Lug tops, bezel and crown are now finely bead blasted and matte; the case sides and back
remain brushed to best show the lug contours. This has resulted in a case that wears much thinner as the domed crystal and caseback somewhat disappear, leaving only bezel and case
\u00a0sides clearly defined. Even though dimensions stay identical at 38×10.9mm, the 37.07 Monolith wears visually much larger than dimensions suggest \u2013 apparent thickness is more like 7mm or less, which disproportionately emphasizes the large dial opening.<\/p>\n

The dial shares only the central gradient mosaic pattern with last year\u2019s anniversary release. It now has a dark grey* Super-LumiNova base layer in the center of a blackened brass dial to match the overall color scheme; on top of this is a printed and partially transparent mosaic. Above the brass dial is a sapphire dial with a gradient printed mask that is opaque black at the edges and composed of graduated transparency triangles at the center, allowing the base luminous material to glow through. The use of a sapphire dial allows for our signature reflective inversion. Legibility is maintained by hands pad-printed with Super-LumiNova X1 and luminous indices on the sapphire dial. The 37-series cases all minimize bezel and maximize dial; they were conceived in response to customer desire for a larger watch but balanced against demographics of real wrist sizes and wearability. The Monolith visually pushes this the furthest of any of our watches; it is visually large and thin yet supremely comfortable to wear.

Finally, we complete the 37.07 Monolith with something a little different: a new strap by Jean Rousseau in a textured calf material we have not previously used, in black with a burnt orange Alcantara lining for some visual pop. We feel it complements the central texture of the dial well but stays true to the overall idea of textural subtlety for this watch.<\/p> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t
