Lot Essay

This extremely attractive pink gold manual winding ‘Infinity’ wristwatch is the creation of master engine-turner and California watchmaker Joshua N. Shapiro.

Launched in 2018, it is classically styled with a polished and brushed 40 mm case. The transparent crystal display back showcases the fine brushed finish and anglage of the movement which has a striking overall monochrome effect, only the solid gold plaque engraved with the watch’s number adds a splash of color. The silvered ruthenium dial is a glorious example of hand engine turning and perfect styling, the brushed chapter ring has engraved Arabic numerals, a large running seconds dial below. The watch features Mr. Shapiro's signature 'infinity basket weave' guilloché that has a basket weave within a basket weave. This patterning if often considered the most tedious and complex kind of guilloché, exemplifying Shapiro's mastery in the art. The watch has fine blued steel hands with pierced tips take their inspiration from early pocket watches, the pink gold seconds hand and signature plaque provide a perfect color contrast to draw the eye.

The present timepiece is a superbly finished and stunning wristwatch that showcases the talents of this incredible American independent watchmaker.
