Luxury apparel and accessory label Ferragamo is celebrating International Ocean Month this year with the launch of the 'F-80 Skeleton' timepiece, a reworked version of its signature F-80 model that opts for more sustainable materials and an all-new sea-themed dial.
The luxurious new timepiece features a unique blend of eco-friendly materials including FSC-certified cork, vegetable-tanned leather, and other all-natural fibers. A standout element of the 'F-80 Skeleton' is its sustainable wrist strap, which combines recycled PET fibers, FSC-certified cork, and vegetable-tanned leather to deliver a comfortable and stylish strap that exudes class.
Meanwhile, the watch's unique Skeleton dial has been designed to showcase the intricacies of the unit's automatic movement. Adding to the watch's ocean theme, the entire unit comes in a blue and green color scheme, evoking the natural hues of the sea.
