The Devil's In The Detail

The first thing you notice about the Cardinal is its incredibly unusual and eye-catching matte case - which is designed to patina over time to give a completely unique look to your watch - complemented by the polished face of the crown, a small flash of embellishment. The case design is a combination of various energy-dissipating angles and chamfers, inspired by lighthouses and ocean-furniture designed to withstand brutal environments.

The Cardinal dial takes inspiration from navigational buoys of the same name, used in maritime pilotage to indicate the position of sub-surface hazards, such as wrecks, reefs and rocky-outcrops, by displaying the direction to which you must pass the buoy - either North, East, South or West - using a simple set of triangular marks.

I own a number of Marloe watches and the Solent Cardinal is a great addition. It's so easy to read the time at a quick glance.

This is my second Marloe watch and I absolutely love it. I particularly like the hidden yellow ring that's only visible from certain angles.

Just a stunning piece! Beautifully crafted and loving the literature that comes with the watch to inform you about the inspiration behind the design.

SHOESTRING SAILOR

When you think of great British sailors, the names Chichester, Knox-Johnston and Cowper come to mind. But one man quietly goes under the radar - Alec Rose, a fruit merchant from Southsea, single-handedly raced across the Atlantic in 1964 before achieving his life's ambition to sail around the world. 

His is a story of a dream realised through ambition, with no sponsorship or financial gain, and in turn becoming inspiration to millions of people. A story that inspired the Solent.
