The Saltire - Flag of a Nation
Created with passion for Scotland
The flag of Scotland, also known as the Saltire, is represented by a St. Andrew’s Cross, passing over a blue field. We designed the Saltire collection with the intention to have a subtle representation of a Saltire across the watch face.
Finely Detailed Dials
Hand Painted Light Blue Enamel and Dark Blue Aventurine Dials
​
We hand-paint over enamel to create the St. Andrew's cross effect. We would like the cross to be "hidden in plain sight", whereby it is only when you look closely into the dial, that the Saltire subtly presents itself.
Practice Chanter Seconds Hand and Thistle Zero-Hour Marker
​
The Saltire Collection was designed in an effort to seamlessly integrate Scottish themes into a tidy design. This includes some nods of appreciation to the history of Scotland and our culture. We based the 'Seconds' hand design on the shape of a Practice Chanter, which is used by pipers to practice tunes when learning to play be bagpipes.
