Atelier Wen x Revolution Perception Collab



Presenting Atelier Wen × Revolution Perception – Xi (喜), which means “jubilation” in Mandarin — our first collaboration with Atelier Wen, the microbrand that is tapping on China's very best artisanal and watchmaking capabilities in a refreshingly modern way.

Our latest limited edition is based on the brand’s wonderful integrated bracelet, sports chic, 100-meter water-resistant watch named Perception. Our version features a matte-brushed and high polished grade 5 titanium case and bracelet. Its unique dial is executed in a stunning red that we feel perfectly captures the essence of emotion and celebration.

While the watch is remarkably well finished, it features an absolutely ravishing guilloché à main dial individually crafted by Master Cheng Yucai.

The Atelier Wen × Revolution Perception – Xi is a limited and numbered edition of 100 pieces.



What are everyone’s thoughts?

I think it's a decently-designed piece overall, but it takes from other popular stalwart designs, and hence is derivative thus unoriginal.

The bracelet and its integration with the case takes heavily from the Vacheron 222. The case takes from the Nautilus.

Code dial + 555 bracelet + Nautilus case = a refreshing package

Looks great, but too similar to its inspiration for me.

I really like this watch and am delighted that China is moving up the value chain and putting some of its incredible history and artisanal techniques and skill into watchmaking. Definitely a brand to watch though the red is not to my personal taste.

Looks like a copy of Havid Nagan HN00 to me with a bracelet
