British Fine Watchmaker unveils D15 MK-1 GMT

ALEXANDRE MEERSON are pleased to announce the arrival of the brand’s very first sport inspired GMT traveller’s watch: MEERSON D15 MK-1 GMT.

The MEERSON D15 is sculpted from grade-5 titanium and grey gold to be both a beautiful and rugged watch; balancing form and practicality with dual-time functionality.

The model’s advanced case engineering and complex architecture ensure the watch is lightweight and waterproof to 100 m/ 10 ATM. Extreme legibility even at difficult angles combined with stylish carved numerals ensure this watch can perform with precision in most circumstances. The subtle blue superluminova offers a striking night vision capability.

At 44mm in diameter, the MEERSON D15 makes a statement but with its slim profile and subtle styling it is both a muscular and refined piece. Similarly to the Altitude collection, the D15 MK-1 GMT carries the signature of the house, manifested in its sapphire crystal glass case, which is gently concaved at the back to fit the wrist like a ‘second skin’.

MEERSON has been working on the D15 MK-1 GMT model for three years. Its creation represents the next step in the brand’s journey with Vaucher Manufacture Fleurier working on the development of the AM-4705 movement to combine a reinforced VMF calibre with a Dubois Depraz GMT complication.

Available in a choice of three dial colours (True Blue, Silvered White, Eternity Black) with multiple bespoke combinations including Black Titanium ADLC, Titanium, Grey Gold in a choice of satin and polished finishes.

The new watch perfectly embodies creator Alexandre Meerson’s vision to create beautiful, modern classic timepieces that meet the strict standards of excellence in watchmaking to strike a note with today’s luxury consumer. 

The son of a renowned watch and jewellery designer, Alexandre Meerson perpetuates a long family tradition in watchmaking, dating back to the ‘50s. tAs a child of the digital era with a passion for horology, fashion and architecture, Meerson has always been fascinated by the imprint of the hand-made; the moment before the machine, and the relationship between craftsmanship and luxury. Both come together in the realisation of Alexandre Meerson, the brand. 

Available now to order with deliveries from September 2015.
