Heading - Introducing The New MING 51.01 Halo, a Contemporary Dress Watch in Crystallised Titanium
MING continues to explore modern watchmaking with the introduction of the 51.01 Halo, a refined dress watch that combines traditional elegance with distinctive contemporary design. Created for enthusiasts who appreciate understated sophistication, this limited-edition timepiece brings together innovative materials, thoughtful detailing and impressive mechanical engineering.
The watch features a compact 37mm Grade 5 titanium case, measuring just 8mm in thickness, making it an elegant companion for everyday formal wear. Its most striking detail is the crystallised titanium finish, achieved through a specialised heat-treatment and chemical etching process. Enhanced with a warm 5N rose gold tone, the textured surface gives the case a unique appearance that sets it apart from conventional luxury watches.

Complementing the case is a minimalist black lacquered dial with a polished centre and circular-brushed outer section. Rose gold-coloured hands and crystal-mounted hour markers create a balanced contrast, adding depth without compromising the watch's clean aesthetic.
Inside, the 51.01 Halo is powered by the hand-wound La Joux-Perret calibre 7380.M1. Measuring only 2.7mm in height, this sophisticated movement delivers an impressive 90-hour power reserve. Its customised finishing includes anthracite-coated skeletonised bridges and carefully executed decorative details.

Completing the design is a black goatskin strap by Jean Rousseau Paris, paired with a crystallised titanium buckle featuring micro-adjustment.
Limited to just 150 pieces worldwide, the MING 51.01 Halo is a distinctive expression of contemporary independent watchmaking, where material innovation meets timeless elegance.
