Shapiro unveil the limited-production 37.06 Lightning timepiece<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>Housed in a 38mm stainless steel case, the watch features a handmade titanium guilloche dial heat\u2011colored by Ming Thein, complete with luminous sapphire indices<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span>Independent watch brand, <\/span><span>MING<\/span><span>, has partnered with J.N. Shapiro to present the 37.06 Lightning timepiece \u2014 born from the long-standing friendship between independent watchmakers Ming Thein and Josh Shapiro, both founding members of the <\/span><span>Alternative Horological Alliance (AHA)<\/span><span>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Housed in MING\u2019s familiar 37\u2011series stainless steel case, a domed sapphire crystal engraved with luminous HyCeram indices frames the dial, while Super\u2011LumiNova X1 coats the hands for long\u2011lasting glow. The sculpted lugs and narrow bezel maximize dial presence, and the absence of a seconds hand keeps the display clean and focused.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The creation process begins in Shapiro\u2019s Los Angeles workshop, where each grade-2 titanium dial is meticulously engine-turned by hand on a traditional rose-engine lathe to form a dynamic, new \u201cLightning\u201d guilloch\u00e9 pattern. From California, the dials travel to Kuala Lumpur, where Ming Thein heat-colors each one individually using a handheld butane torch. This unforgiving technique relies entirely on precise timing and temperature control to draw out a vibrant spectrum of deep blues, rich purples, and striking orange-yellows, ensuring that every resulting dial is entirely unique.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Powered by a customized manual-winding Sellita SW210.M1 caliber, the timepiece boasts a 42-hour power reserve and is elegantly finished with skeletonized rhodium-plated bridges over an anthracite baseplate.

Shapiro unveil the limited-production 37.06 Lightning timepiece<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>Housed in a 38mm stainless steel case, the watch features a handmade titanium guilloche dial heat\u2011colored by Ming Thein, complete with luminous sapphire indices<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span>Independent watch brand, <\/span><span>MING<\/span><span>, has partnered with J.N. Shapiro to present the 37.06 Lightning timepiece \u2014 born from the long-standing friendship between independent watchmakers Ming Thein and Josh Shapiro, both founding members of the <\/span><span>Alternative Horological Alliance (AHA)<\/span><span>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Housed in MING\u2019s familiar 37\u2011series stainless steel case, a domed sapphire crystal engraved with luminous HyCeram indices frames the dial, while Super\u2011LumiNova X1 coats the hands for long\u2011lasting glow. The sculpted lugs and narrow bezel maximize dial presence, and the absence of a seconds hand keeps the display clean and focused.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The creation process begins in Shapiro\u2019s Los Angeles workshop, where each grade-2 titanium dial is meticulously engine-turned by hand on a traditional rose-engine lathe to form a dynamic, new \u201cLightning\u201d guilloch\u00e9 pattern. From California, the dials travel to Kuala Lumpur, where Ming Thein heat-colors each one individually using a handheld butane torch. This unforgiving technique relies entirely on precise timing and temperature control to draw out a vibrant spectrum of deep blues, rich purples, and striking orange-yellows, ensuring that every resulting dial is entirely unique.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Powered by a customized manual-winding Sellita SW210.M1 caliber, the timepiece boasts a 42-hour power reserve and is elegantly finished with skeletonized rhodium-plated bridges over an anthracite baseplate. Priced at 6,250 CHF (approx. $6,900 USD), the 37.06 Lightning is available to order through <\/span><span>MING<\/span><span> in limited batches.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"show-article\">\n<p>                                                            Read Full Article<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<footer>\n<div class=\"related-stories-main-wrapper\">\n<h3>Related Stories<\/h3>\n<div class=\"stories-container\" data-layer-list-name=\"related_stories\" data-layer-list-offset=\"0\" data-layer-list-child-selector=\".story-item\">\n<div class=\"story-item\" data-layer-item-id=\"6732160\" data-layer-item-blog-id=\"1\" data-layer-item-type=\"post\"><span>&gt;<\/span>Gustaf Westman Teases Upcoming Nike Sculptural Ceramic Homeware Collaboration\n                                                                        <\/div>\n<div class=\"story-item\" data-layer-item-id=\"6731238\" data-layer-item-blog-id=\"1\" data-layer-item-type=\"post\"><span>&gt;<\/span>NEEDLES and STUDIOUS Reveal Collaborative &#8220;Poly Smooth&#8221; Track Capsule\n                                                                        <\/div>\n<div class=\"story-item\" data-layer-item-id=\"6732591\" data-layer-item-blog-id=\"1\" data-layer-item-type=\"post\"><span>&gt;<\/span>GUCCIMAZE Embeds Subtle Motifs Into the Vans Authentic 44 DL\n                                                                        <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-email-signup-wrapper impression-tracker\">\n<h3>We got you covered.

Shapiro unveil the limited-production 37.06 Lightning timepiece<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>Housed in a 38mm stainless steel case, the watch features a handmade titanium guilloche dial heat\u2011colored by Ming Thein, complete with luminous sapphire indices<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span>Independent watch brand, <\/span><span>MING<\/span><span>, has partnered with J.N. Shapiro to present the 37.06 Lightning timepiece \u2014 born from the long-standing friendship between independent watchmakers Ming Thein and Josh Shapiro, both founding members of the <\/span><span>Alternative Horological Alliance (AHA)<\/span><span>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Housed in MING\u2019s familiar 37\u2011series stainless steel case, a domed sapphire crystal engraved with luminous HyCeram indices frames the dial, while Super\u2011LumiNova X1 coats the hands for long\u2011lasting glow. The sculpted lugs and narrow bezel maximize dial presence, and the absence of a seconds hand keeps the display clean and focused.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The creation process begins in Shapiro\u2019s Los Angeles workshop, where each grade-2 titanium dial is meticulously engine-turned by hand on a traditional rose-engine lathe to form a dynamic, new \u201cLightning\u201d guilloch\u00e9 pattern. From California, the dials travel to Kuala Lumpur, where Ming Thein heat-colors each one individually using a handheld butane torch. This unforgiving technique relies entirely on precise timing and temperature control to draw out a vibrant spectrum of deep blues, rich purples, and striking orange-yellows, ensuring that every resulting dial is entirely unique.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Powered by a customized manual-winding Sellita SW210.M1 caliber, the timepiece boasts a 42-hour power reserve and is elegantly finished with skeletonized rhodium-plated bridges over an anthracite baseplate. Priced at 6,250 CHF (approx. $6,900 USD), the 37.06 Lightning is available to order through <\/span><span>MING<\/span><span> in limited batches.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"show-article\">\n<p>                                                            Read Full Article<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<footer>\n<div class=\"related-stories-main-wrapper\">\n<h3>Related Stories<\/h3>\n<div class=\"stories-container\" data-layer-list-name=\"related_stories\" data-layer-list-offset=\"0\" data-layer-list-child-selector=\".story-item\">\n<div class=\"story-item\" data-layer-item-id=\"6732160\" data-layer-item-blog-id=\"1\" data-layer-item-type=\"post\"><span>&gt;<\/span>Gustaf Westman Teases Upcoming Nike Sculptural Ceramic Homeware Collaboration\n                                                                        <\/div>\n<div class=\"story-item\" data-layer-item-id=\"6731238\" data-layer-item-blog-id=\"1\" data-layer-item-type=\"post\"><span>&gt;<\/span>NEEDLES and STUDIOUS Reveal Collaborative &#8220;Poly Smooth&#8221; Track Capsule\n                                                                        <\/div>\n<div class=\"story-item\" data-layer-item-id=\"6732591\" data-layer-item-blog-id=\"1\" data-layer-item-type=\"post\"><span>&gt;<\/span>GUCCIMAZE Embeds Subtle Motifs Into the Vans Authentic 44 DL\n                                                                        <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-email-signup-wrapper impression-tracker\">\n<h3>We got you covered.
