Artisans de Genève Reimagines a Rolex Submariner in Soothing “Brown Ice” Palette

Following the reinvention of a Rolex GMT-Master II as a global timepiece for adventurers, Artisans de Genève has unveiled another masterwork – a custom timepiece inspired by a renowned reference. The “Brown Ice”, fashioned from the Rolex Submariner 116610, beautifully translates an artisan’s ideas into this captivating piece of craftsmanship.

In a harmonious combination of cool icy blue and warm rich brown tones, the watch known as “Brown Ice” draws inspiration from peaceful landscapes filled with runabout boats, polished mahogany wood, and tranquil lakes. This timepiece serves as a focal point for its surroundings. I.S.L., the client and owner of this watch, expressed that wearing it evokes the same sense of freedom he feels while exploring on the water. He believes Brown Ice encapsulates his unique personality, adventurous spirit, affection for the water, and appreciation for craftsmanship and attention to detail.

The revamped clock face now showcases an exposed mechanism, sandblasted and palladium-coated for a delicate blend of robustness and finesse. Each piece is skillfully carved, beveled, and polished to expose the intricate inner workings of the timepiece. Alongside the ice-blue exposed dial, blue hour markers, sapphire date wheel, and transparent sapphire case with a blue rotor create an impressive interplay of light and depth.
