Perhaps Just Under the Radar - Piccola & Jofrette

So one of my very happy discoveries in Geneva was this -


This is a "newish" brand headed up by Stephan Lack. And for those of you just tuning in, Stephan was one of the very first people I met at my first BaselWorld as a journalist. He just so happened to be presenting his new brand two booths down from where I was working at the Time to Watches show last week. And I must say, the PJ1 is a fantastic debut.


There are four different dial versions: blue, silver, eggshell, and anthracite. And yes, gentle reader, the anthracite is my favorite.
