Arsenale HK Green Limited Edition by Horoverse 6221HKGLE
Venezianico has collaborated with the renowned YouTube channel "易時Horoverse" to create an exclusive, limited edition watch dedicated to Hong Kong. Under the theme "Discover the story of Hong Kong's Hue" this watch limited to just 250 pieces—dives into the city's aesthetic and serves as a time-traveling exploration of color archaeology.
Colors Beneath Faded Neon
In the post-war 1950s, Hong Kong developed a unique color aesthetic amid material scarcity. Paint, considered a luxury at the time, led this harbor city to discover its own "identity colors" from surplus military paint. The olive green repeatedly painted on trams, Star Ferries, and shuttered stalls wasn't just an economic choice; it was infused with local wisdom. The Cantonese word for "green" sounds like "wealth," imbuing this color with auspicious meaning. This shade, which supported livelihoods, gradually embedded itself into Hong Kong’s visual DNA.
Recreation of the Star Ferry Dial
The watch prominently features green, and for the first time, uses a vintage sector dial design. The outer circle shows the minute markers, while the inner circle meticulously recreates the clock face of the dismantled Central Star Ferry Pier’s clock tower. The specially emphasized 3/6/9/12 hour markers evoke collective memories of those who once looked up to the tower for time. The 40mm stainless steel case with an integrated bracelet houses a high-precision Japanese movement. The case back features engravings of the Star Ferry riding the waves and the old Central Pier, with each uniquely numbered piece documenting the city’s evolving light and shadow.
This watch is more than just a timepiece; it's a slice of cultural history worn on the wrist. When all 250 limited-edition pieces are gathered, they become the most elegant memorial to Hong Kong’s audaciously "green" golden era.
