Peacock Plumage Gaze Hand-Made Guilloché Watch - Year of the Horse Special Edition [Limited]

Inspired by the flowing contour of a peacock feather, the case is engineered through modern geometric cutting into 56 precisely aligned facets, each calculated for visual rhythm and structural integrity. Crafted entirely from 904L aerospace-grade steel—a material rarely used outside top-tier Swiss watchmaking—the case demands exceptional skill. Compared to standard 316L steel, 904L is 10% more difficult to machine and 22% harder, significantly increasing tool wear and finishing complexity. Every facet undergoes multiple hand-finishing stages: brushing introduces refined texture, while mirror polishing sculpts light into controlled, architectural reflections. The higher purity of 904L allows deeper polishing and a brighter, more enduring luster. This is not decorative excess, but disciplined craftsmanship—where difficulty is deliberately embraced to achieve lasting brilliance and tactile perfection.

ScrewsRunning through the case are six signature “Peacock Eye” screws, their form derived from the feather’s central spine. Far more than ornamental details, these screws serve a critical structural role, securing the case while reinforcing its visual identity. Each screw is individually finished to harmonize with the surrounding facets, demanding absolute precision to ensure alignment without disrupting the geometry of the case. In high-hardness 904L steel, achieving this balance between function and aesthetics requires meticulous tolerances and patient hand adjustment. The result is a subtle yet unmistakable design signature—cool metal infused with organic poetry. These screws embody Peacock’s philosophy: every visible element must justify its presence through both purpose and beauty, revealing the watchmaker’s discipline and respect for detail at every angle.

The integrated bracelet consists of 24 independent links, collectively forming 504 meticulously finished facets. Each link is sculpted with 21 geometric cuts, while junction points feature four specially polished chamfers. CNC milling defines the structure; hand polishing perfects every transition, softening light without dulling form. Full-removable screws are embedded into each link’s side, allowing individual disassembly. This engineering choice enhances serviceability while preserving a disciplined visual order—every separable joint reflecting Peacock’s belief that precision and freedom can coexist.

Case and bracelet are forged as a single, uninterrupted steel architecture—visually unified, structurally coherent, and exceptionally comfortable on the wrist. The seamless transition creates the impression of a flowing metal sculpture, eliminating the fragmentation common in traditional watch construction. Even on the hidden inner surfaces where case and bracelet meet, Peacock applies hand-scraped finishing—a labor-intensive technique rarely seen in unseen areas. This devotion to invisible details reflects a singular philosophy: true craftsmanship reveals itself most clearly where no one is expected to look.
