Smiths × AV86 · Limited to 67 pieces

Raqeeqa — رقيقة. Delicate. A word too often said as though it were an apology. This watch says it as a fact, and holds your gaze while it does.

The idea began at Smiths: a watch about self-confidence — the kind that never raises its voice, because it has no need to. We took AV86's 33mm Capri, the small, softly squared mechanical, and gave it a burgundy dial that glows like pomegranate under the light and sinks toward black as it nears six. The hours are written in polished, applied Eastern Arabic numerals — the way we write them at home. Below centre, a black sub-seconds register cut with fine concentric grooves turns quietly, and beneath it sits a single faceted crystal: one point of light where a six would be, because one is enough.

Inside, a hand-wound movement. A few turns of the crown each morning and it runs for thirty-nine hours — a small ritual that belongs only to the woman who wears it. Polished steel, a domed sapphire crystal, a dark cabochon at the crown, and burgundy lizard-grain leather to carry the dial's colour around the wrist.

Sixty-seven pieces, unnumbered — none of them first, none of them last. Conceived and designed by Smiths in Kuwait, realised with AV86 of Copenhagen. Caseback engraving is complimentary, should you want your own words on it.

The purest reading of the shape. Polished steel, a clean white dial, numerals and hands with nothing to hide behind.

Without gold to soften it, you see the case for what it is: sculpted lines, a framed bezel, a domed crystal that bends the light at its edges. Thirty-three millimetres, hand-wound, on dark grey leather. The one that goes with everything — and means it.

The warmest of the three. Gold on cream, tone on tone: applied gold numerals in a flowing script, slim leaf hands, and a sub-seconds register that seems drawn rather than printed.

At 33mm it sits lightly — closer to jewellery than to instrument, until you wind it and feel the movement answer. Brown lizard-grain leather, and a blue cabochon at the crown.

Capri in its deepest colour. A 33mm cushion case in warm gold, a deep green dial, and a small seconds hand keeping its own quiet pace at six.

Wind it by hand each morning — a few turns, thirty-nine hours — and it becomes yours in a way no battery ever allows. Sized for a woman's wrist, worn on green leather.
