Earlier this year, Benjamin James Watches introduced its exclusive Scrifour watch featuring an Ice Blue mother-of-pearl dial, with only 100 pieces made each year. The brand has now expanded the Scarifour collection by adding three new stone dials: Lapis Lazuli, Green Jade, and Burnt Orange Agate. Similar to the mother-of-pearl version, these new dials are also limited to just 100 units annually.
Craftsmanship of the Dials
Each of the watch’s dials is made from real stones. The Lapis Lazuli dial, for instance, is crafted from natural Lapis Lazuli stone, celebrated for its unique patterns and deep colors. The other two dials are made from their named stones, showcasing the beauty of natural materials. The overall design of the dial is quite straightforward, lacking any day or date features.
Technical Features
The watch’s dial is enhanced with BGW9 Swiss Super-LumiNova-coated hour and minute hands, along with brushed hour markers that have mirror-polished edges. Regarding movement, the Scarifour runs on the mechanical hand-wound Sellita SW210-1b, which provides a power reserve of up to 42 hours. Each model comes in a compact stainless steel case measuring 31 x 40 mm with a thickness of 8.3 mm, topped with a sapphire crystal that has anti-reflective coating to guard against scratches.
Design and Durability
Distinct from many other watches, the Scarifour features a brushed integrated bracelet made of 316L stainless steel, secured with a butterfly folding buckle. With a water resistance rating of up to 50 meters (50 bar), each watch in this series is designed to endure everyday weather conditions.
The new Scarifour collection, which includes the Lapis Lazuli, Green Jade, and Burnt Orange Agate, is offered at £948. These models will be available for purchase starting October 1st through Benjamin James Watches’ official site. Additionally, the company will reopen orders for the previously released Scarifour models. Remember, each color variant of the watch dial remains limited to just 100 pieces each year.
