Typically known for its classically-styled watches with top-class movements – the Hamatic being a good example – Moritz Grossmann occasionally embarks on more adventurous projects. Its latest is a collaboration with Emirates Watch Club, a band of horology enthusiasts in the United Arab Emirates. Based on Grossmann’s signature wristwatch, the Benu Emirates Watch Club retains the wonderful cal. 100.1 movement, but with an unusual dial of German silver that’s finished with a pronounced linear graining as well as hand-engraved hour numerals. Named after an Egyptian god as most first-generation Grossmann models are, the EWC edition is near identical to the standard Benu. The case is steel and 41 mm in diameter with broad, long lugs that give it a largish footprint on the wrist.
