Daniel Wellington's iconic Petite mesh collection welcomes a new and larger dial as a result of consumer demand -- the introduction of the Grand Petite boasts a dial that measures out to be 36mm. The minimal design language is retained as the sleek silhouette remains the same with the subtle difference of a larger dial.
The Petite was originally designed to fuse an elegant mesh bracelet with a minimal timepiece. It is made from stainless steel materials and the bracelet itself is carefully cut in a special chain-mail pattern in order to reach the exact length and width to create a perfect balance between destiny and thread count. Notably, on the smaller watch case, the minute markers are removed and balanced with index markers.
