Manifesta Pietersite designed with Shantnu Nikhil
Manifesta Pietersite looks like a storm held still. Bands of gold and pale grey break across a dark ground the way light breaks through cloud, and when the wrist turns, the light moves with it. Each dial is cut from its own piece of stone, so each pattern is its own. ROTORIS and Shantnu Nikhil shaped this edition together, from the first sketches to the strap and the pocket square that complete it.
When a couture label spends time in a watch house
Shantnu Nikhil build their couture on tailoring and drape. On this edition, that cut runs through everything the timepiece arrives with: two straps in Italian leather, a pocket square folded for the chest, and the box that holds them all.

Designed around the dial
Every choice in the edition begins with the stone. The dark grey strap, with its lizard finish, picks up the pale grey in the pietersite, and the black strap, with its crocodile finish, takes the deep black of the ground. The pocket square completes the set.
“Pietersite has a presence of its own. So whoever wears it, carries that presence too.”
