The novelties are crafted in black ceramic and feature distinctive bezels - the larger case watch has a satin-finished black ceramic bezel, while the smaller case version features a polished black anodized aluminium bezel set with 36 black diamonds. The calligraphy done in rich bright orange, blue, green, and red on the dials reads “Al Zaman” and “Al Waqt”, which means time in Arabic, depicting the fusion between the watch brand and Arabian culture.
