According to the horse themed masterpieces, Memorigin proudly presents the Zodiac Series – Horse tourbillon watch. On the dial, there are eight horses engraved in different postures. Some are chasing each other, some are looking back and some are struggling to run forward. The full picture is injected with energy. Especially, in order to present the power of the horses, Memorigin applied a new engraving technique on the design. The muscle of the horses was clearly shown. It is a new achievement of Memorigin on the engraving technique. Besides, Memorigin assembled 11 pieces of natural sapphires as indexes on the dial, which looks like the stars in the sky and they are leading you moving forward. A blessing was given to the watch owner wishing the every success in different fields.
