Swiss watch manufacturer Maurice Lacroix has introduced the new AIKON-IC Frozen Carbon Deep Forest timepiece with its distinctive green Frozen Carbon dial that combines short carbon fibres with pigmented epoxy resin that deliberately creates a random structure making every dial different and unique.
This is the brand’s latest expression of innovative craftsmanship within the AIKON-IC collection, housed in a 43mm lightweight black DLC-coated sand-blasted titanium case and green ceramic (ZrO₂) bezel using advanced materials and a lightweight construction with a sapphire crystal, double anti-reflective coated glass and open case back also made with sapphire glass.
The hour markers have anthracite indexes coated with white super-luminova for better visibility in poor light. The anthracite faceted hour and minute hands are rhodium-plated and also coated with white super-luminova and the date function is at the 3 o’clock position.
The AIKON-IC Frozen Carbon Deep Forest is fitted with a high-precision ML1000 automatic calibre movement, adjusted to ±4 seconds per day and gives approximately 60 hours of power reserve.
The crown is black DLC-coated titanium with a black ceramic cap. The watch is water resistant to 100 metres (330 feet) and is fitted with a black, bi-rubber strap with imitation nylon-textured rubber, featuring the Maurice Lacroix ‘m’ logo and equipped with a new patented ML Easy Change system.
This new urban and versatile timepiece makes for a comfortable and robust every day wear, created for every occasion thanks to its high-performance materials, embodying the Your Time is Now spirit with precision and a taste of uniqueness.
The new Maurice Lacroix AIKON-IC Frozen Carbon Deep Forest is limited to just 500 pieces, priced at £3,450 and comes with a two-year warranty. For more information and to order one of these unique timepieces, please visit: www.mauricelacroix.com.
