The 51.01 Halo engraves its hour indices the same way every other MING does, then fills them with 5N-colored lacquer instead, skipping the glow entirely. It’s a small decision with a specific reason: a dress watch doesn’t need to be read across a dark room, it needs to read correctly next to a dinner jacket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe case makes a similar kind of restrained choice, just through metallurgy instead of lacquer. It’s titanium, not gold, heated in a vacuum chamber to 1,200°C until its crystalline grain structure grows larger, then acid-etched to expose that texture at the surface. Only after that does a 5N coating go on, giving it a warm color that has nothing to do with the texture underneath. The grain is real and comes from the titanium itself. The color is a finish applied on top of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMovement: Manufacture La Joux-Perret for MING Calibre 7380.M1, manual winding, 21 jewels, 3Hz (21,600vph), approximately 90-hour power reserve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinishing: custom skeletonized bridges with matte anthracite coating and hand-finished anglage over a matte black-coated mainplate, MING spoke pattern on the ratchet and barrel wheels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFunctions: hours, minutes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDial: black lacquered “opaline” dial, polished center with circular-brushed periphery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrystal: box-shaped top sapphire with hour indices engraved and filled with 5N-colored lacquer instead of lume, flat sapphire caseback, both with double-sided anti-reflective coating\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrap: black goat leather by Jean Rousseau Paris, 20mm curved quick-release spring bars, 5N-coated crystallized titanium flying-blade tuck buckle with micro-adjustment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLimited edition: 150 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarranty: 2-year limited warranty against mechanical and manufacturing defects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTerms \u0026amp; Conditions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCollective Shop is an authorized retailer of all new watches we sell.
