The giant panda is native to China where it embodies friendship, peace and the perfect balance between strength and calm. The gentle giant wrapped in black and white fur is also hugely popular in the West. The quiet strength and determination of this endangered creature radiates from the dial of the limited edition HM Panda (28 available). A heartfelt story is told on the black lacquer dial: a hand-painted white gold appliqué adult panda and cub eat shoots and sit peacefully on rocky ground by a bamboo tree. Two hands burst from the centre of the dial to track the hours and minutes around the diamond bezel. The manual wind A&S1001 calibre brings the time functions and 90-hour power reserve to life from the heart of the 40mm rose or white gold case. Price: from 31,320 CHF
