Simple as it may appear, the HMS Lady exemplifies the perfection towards which Arnold & Son strives and is a modern interpretation of the company's traditionally elegant design combined with outstanding craftsmanship.

At first sight, the HMS Lady is ostensibly a scaled-down version of the HMS1 designed for a daintier female wrist. A closer inspection, however, reveals that the watch's wonderfully balanced proportions are also identical because the small seconds display is in precisely the correct position relative to all the other features on the dial. The name HMS is a reference to the hours, minutes and small seconds hands found on the cream dial. With its double-stepped bezel and lugs, the 34 mm diameter 18-carat rose gold case (with or without diamonds) houses a hand-wound, A&S1101 calibre mechanical movement measuring an ultra-slim 2.5 mm in thickness. The golden treated movement has blued screws together with exquisite Haute Horlogerie finishing featuring hand-engraved bridges with elegant English-style floral motif. All in all, a perfect addition to the Arnold & Son Royal Collection.
