Ming 17.06 Slate Dial - 2020

The 17.06 from Ming was initially released in a copper dial variant and was awarded as the winner of the GPHG 2019 Horological Revelation. It sold out almost-immediately. Fast forward to the end of 2019, and Ming kindly gave all those who missed out on the initial copper run another bite at the cherry, and released the 17.06 in a stunning Slate dial variant. This also sold out, and even quicker this time. This is a trend that looks to have no sign of abating…the world loves Ming!

So what is the 17.06? It’s simply one of the coolest new Independent watches to hit the scene in recent years. Their first watch to use 316L stainless steel for its 38mm case, it has 100m of water resistance, with a beautiful polished finish. The dial is a deep slate grey, with sapphire outer ring and generous amounts of Super-Luminova across this ring, hands and markers. The movement is a top grade ETA 2824-2 regulated and adjusted to 5 positions by Schwarz-Etienne.     

This particular piece was purchased in May 2020 and presents in like near mint condition. There's a small rub mark on the bezel above 12, and some minor rub marks on the left of the case. Please see images for full condition details.

It comes mounted on a stunning black alcantara strap with blue stitching, handmade by Jean Rousseau Paris. Also includes a lovely Delugs strap.

Includes shipper box, outer box, inner sleeve, Delugs strap, Watch Vault cleaning cloth and warranty paperwork indicating it is under warranty until May 31st, 2022.
