    The history of the Resilience “One Art" watch

    Speake-Marin is extremely proud to join the Only Watch adventure and to take part for the first time in this charity auction by offering a unique timepiece, the Resilience “One Art” watch for the event.

    An emblematic Speake-Marin model, the Resilience reproduces the classic stylistic codes of Peter Speake-Marin's first watch creation, the "Foundation Watch", including its fluted crown, unique shape of its heat-blued steel hands and drum case. The watch's mechanism is housed in a Piccadilly case and is easily identifiable by its sleek lines and its timeless design elements. The watch-case was given its name in order to pay tribute to London’s Piccadilly and the years spent by Peter Speake-Marin restoring antique watches in the British capital.

    The brand is delighted to be taking part in this sixth edition of the Only Watch event. Speake-Marin has taken its inspiration from the Resilience watch to create a unique timepiece: the “One Art”.
    Peter Speake-Marin has made this successful watch model into an exceptional timepiece by paying particular attention to every detail: its red gold seconds hand, its crown set with a sapphire complimenting the blued steel minute and hour hands, and the personalised unique engraving that decorates the case.

    The entire Speake-Marin team has committed itself to the success of this project, thanks to this perfectly finished watch that is unique in its kind.
