Bangalore Watch Company’s Peninsula Carbon featuring a recovered‑carbon dial
The Bangalore Watch Company introduces the Peninsula Carbon, a limited‑edition watch that shifts its focus from natural landscapes to urban environments and their ecological impact. Housed in a 44 mm pebble‑shaped, lug‑less stainless‑steel case, the timepiece features a lightweight ReforgeCarbon dial created from forged carbon fibre combined with recovered carbon black, giving it a distinctive marbled texture and a minute track that mimics an air‑quality index gradient. Powered by a Sellita SW200‑1 automatic movement with a 41‑hour power reserve, the watch offers rhodium‑coated markers, Super‑LumiNova‑filled hands, and a date window at 6 o’clock. It is paired with a high‑density fluoro‑elastomer rubber strap secured by a steel pin buckle. Limited to 100 pieces, the Peninsula Carbon will be available from 26 May 2026 at a price of USD 3,000 (INR 283,000).
