Hands-On With The Stunning New Atelier Wen Inflection
The Atelier Wen Inflection marks a significant evolution for the brand, featuring a case and bracelet made from 99.9% pure tantalum. This material is not only rare and expensive but also challenging to work with, resulting in a unique design that is both comfortable and visually striking. The watch is available in several colorways, including a limited-edition green fumé model, and showcases beautiful Grand Feu enamel dials created by a renowned artisan. The Inflection also incorporates a highly customized Girard-Perregaux movement, which is meticulously finished and offers impressive performance metrics, including a power reserve of 48 hours. In addition to its stunning aesthetics, the Inflection includes a thoughtfully designed bracelet that enhances its overall appeal. The watch's weight and density give it a luxurious feel, while the innovative clasp allows for easy adjustments without removing the watch. Despite the high price point—$19,800 for the strap version and $29,800 for the bracelet—the Inflection stands out in the market, competing with other high-end integrated-bracelet watches made from stainless steel or titanium. This new model exemplifies Atelier Wen's rapid growth and commitment to craftsmanship, making it a noteworthy option for watch enthusiasts.
