Bedat & Co. Ref 727 Watch Exemplifies Appeal Of White Metals And Brown Dials

White metal watches (be they in stainless steel, platinum, white gold, or the industry’s newest star palladium) and rich brown or beige dials can make for a truly dynamic combination.  I well recall seeing a gentleman wearing a Rolex Day-Date watch in white gold, with a Roman dial in a distinctive tobacco brown.  While the Rolex “President” is one of the more ubiquitous luxury watches out there, this particular combination is anything but ubiquitous–in fact, among the many Rolex Day-Dates I’ve seen since, I’ve never encountered another with this exact combination.  Blancpain is another watch manufacturer who has seen fit to introduce models in this compelling combination. 

Such dials work equally well for women as well as men, with the effect being particularly attractive on individuals with olive skin tones.  A fine example of a ladies timepiece that showcases this appealing combination is the Ref. 727 from the Bedat & Co. Collection No. 7, pictured above.  This superb rectangular timepiece would work beautifully across a range of wardrobe options, and give its own a look that is timelessly elegant, yet a step apart from the more common silver, white or black dials.
