The Cornea Impression
The Cornea Impression featured Forty-Seven, Bangalore Watch Company's first pocket watch, written by Kunaal Khemka. The article breaks down the watch's dial, case, and movement details, alongside the writer's own impressions of the finished piece.
At the centre of this pocket watch is an off-white linen-pattern dial with vintage numerals and vintage-lume-coated hands, housed in a 46 mm case of 316L surgical steel with a rose gold PVD finish. It runs on the Ronda 6004.D movement, paired with a lanyard-style leather strap and a personalizable caseback.
At Bangalore Watch Company, every collection begins with a story. Apogee® draws from India's achievements in space, MACH 1® honours aviation, Peninsula has always looked to the landscapes around us, and the Cover Drive® watch collection celebrates cricket. With Forty-Seven, we go back to the years right after independence, when a young nation began laying the foundations of what it would become.
