SERIES NO. 1 - LAYNE
Black dial. Red hands. A different take on the Layne.
The Layne is the first watch I've created under M. Ryan Watch Designs. I wanted the design to have a strong presence on the wrist without relying on oversized dimensions or unnecessary decoration.
The black sunburst dial gives this version its foundation. The red hands bring the contrast, giving the watch a completely different character while keeping the dial clean and highly legible.
MADE TO BE WORN
At 41mm with a 48mm lug-to-lug, the Layne has a substantial wrist presence while maintaining balanced proportions. The front crystal and exhibition caseback both use sapphire crystal, and Swiss Super-LumiNova is used generously on the hands and markers.
