Description

Polo is the sport of royalty. Players gallop on majestic horses to get to the goal and achieve victory. The Polo Player is the first timepiece we used our custom-made phosphorescent pigment on. This first, created especially by Quinting, is the fruit of an advanced study. The result is a luminescent masterpiece that perpetually glows. Within this watch the mallet turns at the speed of the minute hand, enabling the polo player to race through time and hit the rolling ball once an hour. In light or in darkness, the polo spirit radiates within this watch.

Supplied by the brand to the GPHG for its entry.
