Today wearing my Benzinger Subskription Blue.
Nothing beats the beauty of a real hand made guilloche dial.
Best,

I think that Jochen Benzinger is THE reference for guilloche : no one does it better !
That really is a stunning looking Benzinger Subskription Blue..
Not only is the dial stunning but the engraving on the bezel really adds to its beauty. Why is the IIII marker in blue?

The blue marking of the IIII was made on my request.
It has a very personal (and sentimental) meaning to me.
As for the bezel,this is made out of white gold to allow for the hand applied guilloche (steel is too hard to do this).

Thanks for your reply, I am a big fan of this type of engraving on precious metals which is why it is a standout feature to me on your watch.
Also great to hear you were able to have something put on the dial that is very personal and has special meaning to you and that really must make the watch even more special for you. Wear and enjoy it in good health.

Not sure I have seen you post this before — but, likely my favorite of the watches in your collection that I recall. Thanks for the extra context for the blue III. Love that.
Thanks,the watch is a unique piece.
Dial layout,case/bezel and movement decoration have been done entirely according to my wishes.
The design process was really fun!
Lots of "back and forth" between myself and Jochen to define the final product.
The guillochage of the dial looks amazing indeed.
I also like the guillochage of the bezel.
A very nice piece.
Best, Emmanuel
His guilloche is really well done
I love how deep it seems too compared to other brands. Or at least mine was like that. Yours looks similar!
