This palette was extracted from
Award-Winning Automatic Wristwatch
This design features Dark Slate Gray, Black, Tan, Pink, Dim Gray, Lavender, and Rosy Brown.
About the Award-Winning Automatic Wristwatch Design: Aurora of Arthur is an automatic wristwatch inspired by the legend of King Arthur. The dial is made from natural mother-of-pearl, so each piece shows a unique pattern with a subtle fume effect. The case is made of 316L steel and shaped to recall dragon scale armour, while the winding crown takes the form of a crown. Sword-shaped hands and multifaceted hour markers are treated with luminous material for visibility in dim light. An open-heart aperture reveals the movement, and the rotor carries a carved dual-dragon motif. The band can be interchanged by the wearer.
This palette has a warming feel, suggesting inviting warmth.
