A watch as exquisite as this often demands attention, but few actually have a story to tell. New Zealand watch makers Magrette retells the mythological story as told by the native Maoris of how a boy named Maui caught a fish that became New Zealand’s northern island. Limited to only 10 pieces, each Maui’s Fish Watch is hand engraved with remarkable precision that comes from 25 years of experience. The watch includes a handsome black leather strap and arrives in a beautiful handmade wooden box.
