All about the Venezianico Nereide Amethyst 4521545

All about the Venezianico Nereide Ametista, which impresses with its purple dial.

The first batch of 400 pieces sold out in no time.

The Nereide Ametista combines the rich Venetian craftsmanship tradition with experimentation with modern materials. In addition to the precious dial, it is characterized by the use of a tungsten bezel, an indestructible metal known for its excellent mechanical properties and durability.

The Origin of Amethyst

Amethyst is a variety of quartz with a purple color, ranging from light and delicate shades to more intense and deep tones. Its beauty is further enhanced by its ability to finely reflect light, creating a luminous and enveloping effect. Thanks to its unique luster and elegance, amethyst has been used for centuries to create high-quality jewelry and art objects.

Brief History of Amethyst in Venice

In the Middle Ages, Venice, thanks to its strategic location and its connections with the East, including the Byzantine Empire and the Arab territories, became an important center for gemstone trade. Amethyst, originating from India and Persia, was particularly prized. Thanks to its excellent craftsmanship, Venice transformed amethyst into jewelry and ornaments of immeasurable value, which were not only artistic masterpieces but also tangible symbols of wealth and prestige.

Venezianico Nereide Ametista - Limited Pre-OrderManufacturing of the Dial

The manufacturing of a dial follows a similar process to the one described earlier, but involves an additional complexity: the fine cutting of an amethyst disc only 0.4 mm thick. This process requires exceptional precision and careful control of tools, as the stone is very fragile and can chip easily. Once these steps are completed, the dial is meticulously assembled by specialized craftsmen.

The Essence of Venice

Wearing a watch with an amethyst dial is an experience that deeply connects us with the elegance and history of Venice. Every time we lift our wrist to check the time, we immerse ourselves in the richness of a centuries-old cultural heritage, in a story of distant trades, craftsmanship, and a gemstone that has captivated generations. The reflections and deep hues of amethyst take us on a journey through Venetian history, highlighting the city's ability to showcase the natural beauty of this extraordinary stone.

Authenticity & Condition of the Watches

I guarantee you 100% that all watches offered are unworn, brand new original goods.
