MAKINA Watches is a leading watch brand from the Philippines which has won many prestigious international design awards for their watches. MAKINA has also been positively featured and reviewed in watch industry magazines such as ‘Worn & Wound’, ‘Time + Tide’, ‘MonoChrome’, ‘Esquire’ and ‘Time Gear’. Unique design is at the heart of their philosophy, whilst incorporating the finest quality materials, premium Swiss movements, giving them a specification to match many leading luxury watch brands on the market. Many famous Filipinos have been spotted wearing MAKINA watches and with only a limited number of watches being manufactured for each range, they are very desirable watches that sell out very quickly.

MAKINA’S range of bronze watches is called URIEL. The URIEL is a timepiece where elegance meets a slight industrial charm. Being made from bronze, the look and feel of the URIEL will come alive overtime with this alluring of alloy metals.

Part of the appeal and charm of owning a bronze watch is due to the patina effect that takes place overtime. This process is quite unique to each owner, and may vary from watch to watch due to the environment the watch is worn and kept in. Some owners like lots of patina, whilst others will choose to take some off through cleaning, using simple common household ingredients.

The textured indices are thick and arched, made to look like it is lifting. Minimalistic in design, its chiseled components give it 3D symmetrical design, visual depth and dimension. The URIEL is powered by the famous Swiss powerhouse movement the Sellita SW200-1 which is found in high-end watches. This can be seen through the sapphire crystal caseback on the watch. The URIEL is perfect for both formal and casual attire.
