Alexandre Meerson Altitude Pop'Art 101-LEIS

The Altitude is an elegant and contemporary interpretation of the classic dress watch. Inspired by the Art Deco architecture of the Peace Hotel in Shanghai, the intricacies of the Altitude's masterful design reveal themselves to the wearer over time. A clear, sapphire crystal case back reveals a mechanical self-winding movement, AM-4808, manufactured by Vaucher Manufacture in Fleurier for Meerson.

With this Pop'Art limited series, Alexandre Meerson has fused the design and craft of the Altitude dress watch with his daring, vibrant and witty interpretation of Pop art. A maximum of 100 numbered pieces will be created across six original dial designs. This stunning timepiece is set in a grade 5 titanium case with a striking Blue Dots dial and rhodium hands. A dark blue denim strap with a matching titanium buckle completes the look.

The idea for Pop'Art derived from a private client's request to have an exceptional timepiece designed and crafted by Alexandre Meerson to celebrate his passion for art and his latest acquisition, Roy Lichtenstein's Girl in Mirror (1964). This creative experience took Alexandre Meerson on a months-long journey of discovery and inspired him to design a limited edition in order to share his joyous exploration of modern art, craft, and the meaning of time.
