About
Features a beautifully coloured niobium insert! 2nd in the series!
Distance and proportion melt away on the great expanse of Arctic ice—and the Inuit fisherman would disappear into the landscape if it were not for the brownish-grey earth tones of his animal hide parka. Eventhen, it would take a trained eye to spot the dot of contrast against the frigid white that defines theArctic for most of the year.
