Ming 57.04 Iris

Ming 57.04 Iris owners and reviewers praise its striking, sculptural case design and the mesmerizing, color-shifting dial, which features a multiphasic coating on a guilloché plate. The manual-winding Sellita SW562 movement is noted for its smooth winding and crisp chronograph action. The watch is a bold, left-handed monopusher chronograph with a destro crown and Art Deco-inspired stepped lugs. Some owners find the Art Deco lugs clash with the minimalist aesthetic, and one reviewer noted the 30-minute counter legibility was an issue on a prototype, while another felt the chronograph's lack of a track made it more conceptual than functional. The Ming 57.04 Iris is priced at CHF 6,250 and limited to 100 pieces. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Ming 57.04 Iris highly for its cohesive yet disruptive design and magical dial.
