A Handmade .935 Argentium Silver Cased Watch, Available Exclusively via Collective Shop (US) and The Limited Edition (UK)
Limited to just 12 pieces total, this special release is available only from Collective Shop (US) and The Limited Edition (UK).
A culmination of James’ 20 years of experience in the watchmaking, silversmith and precision engineering industries, The Origin Series is James Lamb’s first release, showcasing traditional horological craft with entirely hand made .935 Argentium silver cases and champlevé vitreous enamel dials hand-crafted in Britain.
Unique to the Azur, the dial features a laser engraved geometric pattern which is then finished in a rich, blue enamel which surrounds the eccentric dial, made of ceramic by Lamb and pad printed.
The Origin Series Argentium silver case is created entirely by James from flat stock bullion and shaped to final form using only simple hand tools, the lathe and fire. Not content with just making the case, other components James produces in his workshop are the sterling silver dial blanks, winding crown, pendant tube, sterling silver dial feet, ceramic subdial and decorated movement holder of the Origin Series.
The case design has presence but is comfortable for all wrist sizes. The finely profiled bezel and sapphire crystal maximises the aesthetic impact of the dial, yet allows the case to maintain moderate proportions.
Each case is hallmarked at the London Assay Office. The solid silver laser engraved case back is finished with a design that echoes the theme of the dial.

Please note: James Lamb watches are handmade. The case are made using silver, which is a softer metal than stainless steel. There may be some slight imperfections (minor marks or scratches) on the case that are natural and common on handmade cases. Additionally, the enamel dials are made by hand by a master enameler in the UK - because they're done individually, there may be some slight variation in appearance from watch to watch.
