Ralph Lauren Ralph Lauren New Rl67 Safari Big Calendar Watch
‘The romantic dreams of safari always appear in my mind. It will be an adventure, but also a piece of rough and shocking natural landscape. Exquisite world. ‘
——Ralph Lauren
RalphLauren is proud to introduce two RL67 Safari watches: the wide size of 50mm, all highlight its unique beauty of bold and elegant. Both of the newly released watches are equipped with eye-catching calendar display windows, which are more clear when reading than traditional surfaces, at a glance: the left window displays the numbers 0-3, and the right window displays the numbers 0-9. The addition of this complication enhances the practicality of the Ralph Lauren classic.
The first watch to be released featured a sky blue lacquered camouflage dial, and the stainless steel case was treated with advanced technology to add a retro effect and present an ‘old’ feel. The watch is water-resistant to 10 bar, and with an olive green alligator strap, it fully demonstrates the craftsmanship and overall beauty of this watch. The hour and minute hands are coated with Super-LumiNova®, giving a soft glow; the bright orange seconds hand points to the hour-markers printed with Arabic numerals, adding a visual effect to the dial. The Caliber RL3105 mechanical self-winding movement contains a 42-hour power reserve and is decorated with vertical ‘Côtes de Genève’ and grain round grains called ‘perlage’.
The second watch is also equipped with the RL3105 self-winding movement, a stainless steel case treated with an ‘old’ effect, a charcoal gray dial with frosted lacquered lacquered blue, and a ‘worn’ olive green canvas strap. Following the first RL67 Safari watch, first introduced in 2013, with a canvas strap, it is designed to echo the explorer’s canvas shoulder bag. The watch can also be purchased separately as an extra strap, available in blue, black and washed colors, all with leather lining. Ralph Lauren carefully selected each color, including the classic olive green, to convey the true meaning of the safari spirit. ‘From the very beginning of my debut as a designer, I dreamed of going to Africa and hunting.’ Ralph Lauren said, ‘Safari hunting is a yearning for adventure, a life of freewheeling, and urging myself to go beyond the limits. The desire to experience the wilderness of nature and the farthest places in the world. ‘
