Bowie
Slim titanium, blue-tinted, weightless. The dress frame whose dressiness is invisible.
Hover · See it wornBeta-titanium thinner than a Patek case. Soletti has built a dress frame that looks like a piece of jewellery.
Worn with the Royal Oak Jumbo, the Bowie disappears against the skin. That is the highest compliment one can pay a dress frame.
53-18-142. Satin beta-titanium. The slimmest frame in the house and the one I would put on the cover.
Italian Mazzucchelli 1849 acetate.
Cut from the same cellulose-acetate blocks Mazzucchelli has poured since 1849. Every Soletti frame is sliced and shaped by hand, then tumbled for seventy-two hours. The polish is what acetate does when it is left alone long enough.

The frame whose dressiness is invisible.
The Bowie is the dress frame. Slim beta-titanium, blue-tinted, weightless to the point where a woman who wears it forgets she is wearing it until she takes it off. It is the frame I drew for black tie — and then realized she would wear it on Tuesday at lunch.
The titanium is hand-finished to a satin sheen rather than a polish, because polish at this thinness reads as plastic. Satin reads as metal. Fifty-three at the lens, eighteen at the bridge, a temple of one hundred and forty-two — the smallest measurements we offer, and the most deliberate.
We paired it with the Royal Oak Jumbo Extra-Thin in white gold because both pieces are dress objects whose formality has been removed. They are made for a woman whose elegance is the absence of effort.

Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Jumbo
Bowie is the dress frame — slim titanium, blue-tinted, weightless. Its companion is the Royal Oak Jumbo Extra-Thin in white gold, openworked — the watch that asked the world to take steel seriously and then quietly graduated. Together they are the formal man whose formality is invisible.
