First look at our upcoming AETHELSOHN Forge Guilloché release

Not officially launched yet, but close enough that we can finally start sharing it.

This upcoming model features a vertically patterned guilloché dial that comes alive under changing light. Inside is an automatic mechanical movement, keeping things traditional beneath a more contemporary dial design. We haven't settled on a name yet, so for now it's simply the Forge Guilloché project.

Curious which color everyone is gravitating toward: Aqua, Emerald, or Violet? 👀

Has anyone seen a seaweed stone dial with lume underneath it before?

We've been experimenting with natural materials for a while. This is Terra Abyss, made from natural seaweed stone with a lume layer beneath the dial.
In daylight, it looks like a piece of stone with branching organic patterns.
At night, the entire dial lights up and the patterns become even more dramatic.
Would you rather have:
Maximum lume brightness? Or a more interesting lume effect like this?

Introducing Terra Abyss — a dial that reveals a second personality after dark

Many watches glow in the dark. Terra Abyss comes alive.
Crafted from natural seaweed stone, each dial carries organic patterns formed over time, making every piece unique.
Beneath the stone lies a layer of Super-LumiNova® that transforms the dial after dark, illuminating the natural patterns from within.
Terra Abyss also debuts our new case and bracelet design, bringing a sharper silhouette and a more integrated feel on the wrist.
By day, stone. By night, abyss.

Quick look at Terra Gaia in motion

Dial looks calm in some angles, then a lot more textured in others.
Trying to figure out where it lands for most people — daily or occasional piece?

So this escalated a bit. Terra Pearl new colors Update#2

Last time it was just blue… now we’ve got this wine-red version too

Quick follow-up to the last post.
We originally thought this would just be a blue dial project, but while working through the batch, we’ve started to explore this wine-red version.
Same material, completely different vibe.
Now we’re split internally — some prefer the blue, others think the red has more depth.
What do you think?

Here’s what’s actually coming off the bench right now

Shot from our latest batch of Terra Pearl Amethyst. No two patterns match, and even the color shifts depending on angle.
On one hand, I love how unpredictable each dial turns out. On the other, it’s definitely not understated.

A magical natural stone, where every slice reveals a different face of our Earth.

AETHELSOHN Forge Guilloché Mint Green

Forge Guilloché Mint Green Most playful of the set. Brighter, more open, and shifts nicely with the light. The pattern’s there, but the color takes the lead—definitely a different vibe from the darker ones.

Forge Guilloché in Amethyst — engraved line by line

Forge Guilloché in Amethyst

Engraved line by line, not printed or stamped.

Each cut is carved into the dial surface with high precision, creating sharper detail, deeper texture, and a stronger play of light as the dial moves.

Would love to hear what you think.

Aethelsohn New Forge Guilloché — thoughts?

We’ve been working on a Guilloché-style dial with tighter pattern control and cleaner symmetry. This one focuses on how the light moves across the surface rather than just the engraving itself.

Specs: TMI VH31, 38.5mm case diameter

Curious to hear your thoughts.

Details can’t be hidden.

Some things speak for themselves. From the dial to the finishing, every detail shows. No shortcuts. No compromises.

Terra Nova dial comparison: Black Agate & Rose Quartz

Two natural stones, two distinct ways of playing with light. The agate reflects and shifts, while the rose quartz gives a smoother, more even tone. One stands out, the other draws you in. Curious where you land on this.

Aethelsohn Terra Nova Black Agate - case and dial detail pass

For this watch, the black agate dial is paired with gold hands and markers under shifting light. It stays clean at a glance, but the warmth starts to come through from different angles. Curious what you think — understated or too subtle?
