MING 57.04 Phoenix - Polymesh
Price Tier N/A
The images of the watch on the strap are for illustrative purposes only. This variant ships with a Polymesh only. The Iris – our first 57.04 – marked the start of the 5th generation with a colourful bang. It quickly became clear that 100 watches werent enough, and fortuitously we were already working on the follow up. After all, monopusher chronographs have become something of a core pillar for MING and it was time we added one to our core collection. We bid the MING 57.04 Phoenix welcome. This version of the 57.04 is a little more restrained than its flamboyant peacock of a cousin but still shows its colours underneath the deeply dished grey dial – radial cutouts offer a window to a baseplate treated with the same colour shifting multiphasic coating seen on the Iris. The watch has what we think of as tonal structure: mostly monochromatic, whilst remaining very three dimensional, quite graphic and with pops of colours peeking through. The dial is a study in texture and shadow, complete with curved sculpting, negative relief elements and a lot of depth. Even the subdial has been redesigned to enhance this feeling, and as is our signature – everything carries luminous material, in both MING Polar White and Super-LumiNova X1. The Phoenix is a destro monopusher chronograph with the crown and single button on the left side. It shares the uniquely configured Sellita for MING Cal. SW
