PyroLume Nightsteel series NS01-001



Nightsteel is created by taking polished 316L surgical grade stainless steel and treating it with serial applications of PVD plating and my signature HPLP bead blasting process.  The end result is a unique surface finish that boasts improved scratch resistance when compared to untreated stainless steel and traditional PVD plating.  The first piece to use this process is this NS01-001, a simple and lightweight watch that blends this new case finish all of the elements of the Volcano Edition package.  More photos and detailed specifications of this piece can be seen on the item listing page here: eBay listing - PyroLume NS01-001

Having taken a long summer break to recharge my creative batteries, I decided to make this the first piece in my fall comeback. The Bead Blasted Monster Series BB17-001 is shockingly radical in its design, measuring 47mm in width and using monstrous 30mm width lugs. The general design concept here is "Alien Artifact", something I hope watch lovers will enjoy and appreciate.

Return of the Turbofans

I had a wonderful email from a lady about a month back, "All my son wants for Christmas is a Titanium Turbofan". I unfortunately lost track of her email address however I took the dust off the CNC files I wrote almost 2 years ago and turned out a fresh batch of 45mm Titanium Turbofans.

Classic Edition





Volcano Edition




Lightning Edition

Presenting my latest creation - Aluminum Guilloche

This dial was mad using a sheet of perfect 0.25mm thick aluminum and a custom made blunt conical cutter. The actual depth of the grooves is about .15mm and that depth was achieved 0.04mm at a time. The motion of the table was accelerated and decelerated at the beginning and end of each line which gives the stacked appear acne of tool marks in the corners. This dial will be lumed and installed in on of my 45mm titanium cases with Asian hand wind movement.

SLQ-002 Mother of Pearl Phantom

43mm stainless steel case, Swiss ETA quartz, sapphire crystal, rose gold hands, CNC machined mother of pearl dial with phantom lume application.

This piece of material has alot of "character" compared to pieces I have used in the past. There are some sharp lines and small imperfections that really add to the overall package.
