Gs Tp Boiled Eggs Watch

The Boiled Eggs dial watch is a simplified version of the original GS/TP Fried Eggs watch, with tropical-inspired sunburst brown dial and halved boiled egg markers at 12, 3, 6, and 9. A white train track and lollypop markers count out other hours and minutes, and the overall design evokes a bowl of Ajitsuke Tamago (ramen eggs). The custom-milled surgical steel case is quad-screwed with a bubble back, finished with linear brushing on the sides, radial brushing on the back, and mirror polishing on the thruppenny bezel, inspired by a British thruppenny bit’ (three pence coin), which was dodecagonal from 1936 until its withdrawal in 1971. The twelve points of the bezel line up with the hour indices. The gently twisted bombe lugs are half drilled- the lug holes on the crown side are only semi drilled, while the lugs on the left side are fully drilled. This anachronistic detail, taken from some early Rolex models, combines the convenience of fully drilled lugs with a slightly cleaner profile
