The Dong Son by Peter Speake-Marin is a specially-commissioned timepiece, featuring an 18 carat red gold dial with an etched motif inspired by Dong Son bronze drums, a Vietnamese cultural treasure.  As you can see, this is one INCREDIBLE watch.  Though I have written about a couple of Speake-Marin’s watches previously (HERE), I can not even come close to bringing you the insights that you will find at Monochrome.nl, a blog I have mentioned several times in the past.  Frank Geelen runs the show at Monochrome and he is absolutely phenomenal when it comes to the Independent watchmaking segment.  Jump on over to Monochrome for a great top-to-bottom of the Dong Son watch and more.  Seriously!
