The Devil's in the detail

When we were designing colourways for the Coniston range we opened up the shutters to include other iconic liveries. From the unique Castrol liveries of the Toyota Corolla to the blue and gold “555” Subaru Impreza of Colin McRae, there are so many beautiful paint schemes to be inspired by, but one inspired us more than any other - sky blue and orange - a match made in motorsport heaven.

For our own Trackday, we’ve used a fully polished handset with just one accented tip - on the running seconds hand - in the same “marigold” orange as the original liveries. It’s a bit of a beauty, even if we do say so ourselves.

Coniston Water

This little stretch of water in the Lake District opened our eyes to a world of water speed records and we soon delved into the world of the Campbells. Such brilliance. Such daring. Such commitment. We have been inspired so deeply by the efforts of Donald and Sir Malcolm that we felt it appropriate, and our honour, to celebrate these pillars of British endeavour. We must cherish the legacy that we create, and those legacies that resonate with us.

“All round fantastic experience once again fron Marloe. Love the Trackday. Superb value for money and just a really cool looking watch.”

“Looks even better than website photograph, keeps perfect time. Already had lots of compliments. Might be purchasing another style in the near future.”

—Chris W.

“This watch is incredibly beautiful and a tremendous value for its price. The details in this watch befit a timepiece of far greater expense. I’m a new, enthusiastic fan of Marloe.”

—Nate B.

FRAMEWORK

The Coniston Automatic uses the same framework of dial construction as the original, using an outer bezel that sits just underneath the crystal and angles downwards steeply towards a moat of illumination - a white ring of luminescent material that glows brightly at night. The bezel on this iteration has a subtly polished chamfer on the edge that joins these two faces, and adds a little visual sparkle that moves constantly with your wrist.
