Black has always been a fashionable color. It
exudes confidence and elegance. One might say it is also the secret color of
success. A platinum dress watch on a shiny black strap, a luxurious limousine, the
magic black credit card…all are understated even though they remain obvious
status symbols.

With GRIEB&BENZINGER's new creation, the
PHAROS CENTURION IMPERIAL, one more impressive status symbol arrives on the
scene: a glamorous, yet simultaneously understated luxury timepiece boasting an
all-black appearance. Its cool black look is perfectly topped off by an
expressive, eye-catching pavé-set bezel with 66 black Princess-cut diamonds.
The totally blackened manually wound movement with its signature
three-quarter-plate is decorated in typical GRIEB&BENZINGER manner,
particularly exhibiting its beauty from the back: hand-guilloché,
hand-skeletonization, and hand-engraving as far as the eye can see.
Like every GRIEB&BENZINGER creation,
these watches are exceedingly rare; your neighbor isn’t likely to have one on
his wrist.
The price tag for this black beauty, which is
in the six-digit range, will ensure the natural selection of its owner –
probably someone with a lot of other black in his possession already, like a
certain black credit card…
