I didn't knew this one. I know the platinum one with platinum and black dial. This one is just amazing! It is not for sale by any coincidence? thx, Dirk

Haunting it is... [nt]

What is the used technique for the Map? Is it like the 5131 or GP JH?

Champlevé. [nt]

A work or art!

Do they do one for Asia too?

Not as a regular timepiece if I remember well (America and Europe are the regular ones). But, I know that many special orders have been made. Maybe one for King of Thailand if I'm right (not 100% sure)

You should find a lot of different iterations of this Mercator on the Hour Lounge website my friend. Best wishes Alkiro

Thank you Nico!

Very, very nice and pretty rare I am sure

What a fantastic timepiece!!

but so many maps to choose from ;-) see this time-lapse history of Europe

Absolutely an objet d'art

Mesmerizing dial, brilliantly executed.

Good grief, that's exceptional!

Thanks for sharing

Amazing

I've only previously seen these colored-dial Mercators with a white/crème ocean. This edition with the light blue ocean is incredible. Is there an Americas version with the blue ocean as well? Thank you for sharing this beauty with us. Cheers, John

America. For your eyes...

The Mercator range, the Metier's D'arts (especially the Masques collection) are truely timeless, and original thinking when it comes to timepieces - it is when I see these, that I cannot complete discard VC as a true haute horology brand, even if I feel t... 

Very nice Mercator.

I always have appreciated the work on those dials. Best, Vte ...  

Poetic is right.

 
 By: TheMadDruid : February 1st, 2018-08:27
The dials are gorgeous, but the idea behind them-maps of discovery-makes them what they are. Your photos of these watches are wonderful.

I've seen this before

It blows me away. What a piece to collect

There was also a LE for Russia

 
 By: jonrus : February 4th, 2018-11:41
20 pieces if my recollection is accurate.

I saw it in Geneva Boutique fo sale many years ago

 
 By: jonrus : February 4th, 2018-16:21
It was YG. Had map of Russia. Boutique had #20 out of 20 for sale.

I recall a yellow gold dial

 
 By: jonrus : February 5th, 2018-21:16
It had the entire map of Russia. I think had some cyrillic writing... cannot be 100% on the last fact, since it’s been several years ago. Definitely before the Russian boutique was opened.

Please explain your last term...

I didn’t understand the word in relation to a Mercator

Artisans. Have a look, for example, at that link.

Wow!

638 Mercator made in 10 years according to the article! Extremely rare, considering the dial variety made regionally across the world. So special!

Yes. Very special. [nt]
