Anders & Co's latest collection showcases a fusion of the brand's signature stone dials and the classic AC1 Chronograph. This innovative approach not only adds a touch of natural elegance to the watch but also demonstrates the brand's rapid evolution. The collection features five semi-precious stone dials, each with its own unique character: white mother of pearl, black onyx, red jasper, turquoise, and bloodstone. The introduction of sharp Dauphine hands with lume further enhances the modern aesthetic, while the use of Breguet numerals adds a touch of vintage charm. The dial layout, with a tachymeter and minute scale, provides a vintage feel, and the applied hour markers filled with lume contribute to the overall dressy appearance. The case dimensions remain consistent with the previous AC1 model, measuring 38mm across, 11.1mm thick, and 46mm lug-to-lug. However, subtle changes to the lug geometry and case finishing give the watch a more premium and practical feel. The Seiko VK64 mecaquartz chronograph movement offers a balance between reliability and tactile appeal, providing a chronograph experience without the need for a mechanical base calibre. The collection is priced at 6,900 SEK for the standard models and 7,490 SEK for the bloodstone variant, making it an attractive option for those seeking a unique and functional timepiece.
