An auspicious Year of the Dragon 2024 for Bonia Timepieces

This year’s Chinese zodiac animal, the revered Dragon, is setting off powerful sources of inspiration for creations ranging from fashion to watches. For 2024, Bonia joins the dragon-enthused fray with the launch of a new watch collection that packs more than a punch: the BNB2024 limited edition, comprising two distinct models and embellished with the mythical dragon creature at the centre stage.

Each of the two timepieces, painted in a unique black or red palette, augurs a strong festive spirit while catering to different personal styles and expressions of individuality. The generously sized 42 mm x 53 mm rectangular case offers ample space to portray the might and majesty of the Dragon.

For the BNB2024 collection, the notion of decoration is matched with accurate timekeeping, delivered by reliable and precise Japanese automatic movements with 50 m water resistance. Central hour, minute and second hands, alongside an elegantly knurled crown, located at the 3 o'clock position enable time reading.

Impressing the watches with depth, allure and mystery, the skeletonised dial serves as an exquisite backdrop for the rose gold-tinted Dragon motif whilst giving a tantalising glimpse of the movement through the sapphire crystal. The transparent case back, marked as a special Dragon Edition and a unique limited-edition number, offers a clearer view of the intricately finished movement.

A subtle and delightful detail is the red crystal hour marker posited at 2 o'clock, representing a fireball toyed with by the Dragon. Finally, a soft silicone strap completes the watch with comfort, practicality, and a sporty and everyday appeal.
