While GoS is known far and wide for their pioneering work in Damascus steel, they have also done quite impressive things with mother of pearl as well, as hardcore GoS fans will well remember the Stockholm -

With this new collection, it is clear that GoS has continued to grow and evolve with an extremely pleasing set of dial variations.

So why "go back" to mother of pearl?  Well, the folks at GoS put it pretty succinctly like this:


GoS tempered damascus steel dials have deep and dynamic colors, but one limitation is that they do not emit any light. Mother-of-pearl is translucent and let both color and light through the material. GoS is the first watch brand to use this property and present mother-of-pearl dials that glows in colors. 

So there you have it!  Here are the pertinents -
