Speake-Marin J-Class watches

Speake-Marin's J-Class Velsheda is named after a British J Class racing yacht built in 1933 that still races today. Speake-Marin showed the watch in steel at Baselworld 2014 and added a red gold version in 2015.

The Velsheda tells the time with a single polished, blued hand, counterbalanced by a pointer at one end and an arc at the other, so the display recalls a compass. Its central hub and the seconds wheel above it take the shape of the topping tool that serves as the brand's logo. The red gold version has a white lacquered, multi-level dial with Roman numerals and sits in a Piccadilly case with a fluted crown. Inside is an automatic Vaucher calibre with a 50-hour power reserve, its topping-tool rotor visible through the display back. The crown has two positions, one for hand-winding and one for setting the time with hacking seconds. The PIC.10024 is a 42 mm red gold Velsheda.

The Resilience comes from Speake-Marin's Piccadilly collection and predates the Velsheda. The PIC.10009 is a 38 mm steel Resilience with a fired enamel dial, blued steel hands and the automatic Eros 2 calibre with a five-day power reserve. It shares its Piccadilly case with the Serpent Calendar; the PIC.10005-01 is a 42 mm red gold Serpent Calendar with a white dial. The Resilience One Art (PSM OW2015) is a unique 38 mm red gold Resilience with a hand-engraved case and a blue sapphire in the onion crown, made for the Only Watch 2015 charity auction in Geneva, whose proceeds went to Duchenne muscular dystrophy research. The Magister Tourbillon PIC.10031 is a 42 mm red gold tourbillon with a white dial and a 12 mm thick case.
