Marquetry Patterned Timepieces

The Time+Tide x Dennison DateNight Has a Mother of Pearl Dial

The Time+Tide x Dennison DateNight has been created as part of an ongoing partnership between the brands as a timepiece that puts intricate style and dependable timekeeping in focus. The watch is characterized first and foremost by its Australian mother of pearl dial that has been meticulously inlaid by hand using a marquetry technique to make no two look quite alike, while also achieving a truly striking finish. The dazzling timepiece thus comes as the Time+Tide's foray into the dress watch category for discerning collectors alike to get their hands on.

The Time+Tide x Dennison DateNight is powered by a Ronda quartz movement to ensure precise timekeeping and features a goldilocks size to have it ready for unisex wear.
