Toledano & Chan has unveiled their latest timepiece: the B/1.2 — a sleek and mesmerizing sequel to their first watch offering. Co-founded by watch enthusiasts and avid collectors, Alfred Chan and Phillip Toledano, the brand first made its debut last May with a lapis lazuli dial B/1 timepiece.

Continuing to expand on their Brutalist-inspired design language, the latest model spotlights a Tahitian mother-of-pearl dial encased beneath an asymmetrical sapphire crystal — a notable change in design from its predecessors that not only brings out the dial’s shimmering iridescent but also creates an intriguing mirroring effect to its unique watch case. While the case diameter remains the same 33.5mm size as the B/1, the B/1.2’s bracelet and clasp have been completely re-engineered to fit the new dial.

Take a closer look at the timepiece in the gallery above. Toledano & Chan’s B/1.2 is set to release in March via its website with a price tag of $5,700 USD.
