藏家Matthias T.的年度最愛｜HOROGUIDES雜誌Vol.9特別企劃
從年度代表字到各式排行榜，歲末年終是屬於回顧與盤點的季節。在科技時代裡，我們慣於用數據解讀趨勢、用理性分析變化，但手腕上的腕錶收藏始終例外，喜愛的選擇從不靠演算法決定，而是源自心動、記憶與生活的里程意義。
HOROGUIDES雜誌Vol.9年度回顧特別企劃【Time, Rebalanced! 瑞士鐘錶年度回顧】，邀請17位藏家分享他們心中的年度之選。今年的瑞士鐘錶業在關稅壓力與市場震盪的縫隙中，重新尋找比例、節奏與人的溫度，選擇放慢腳步的同時，更是一場關於品牌、藏家與工匠，如何重新定義節奏的年度回顧。
35 歲的獨立製錶與古董腕錶愛好者， 專注 40mm 以下的錶款。

Initially this watch was meant to be for my wife (size wise, and I would have the Berneron mirage 38 as a couple watch) , but after wearing it for a while, it has quickly become my favourite watch so far, and thus my watch now.
這最初是一只我為太太挑選的腕錶（尺寸恰到好處，原意也是能與我自己的Berneron Mirage 38成為對錶），然而，在戴上它一段時間後，它成了我最喜愛的一只錶，也因此變成我的錶了。
BERNERON Mirage 34 Viridian 白金 / 錶徑34mm / 215機芯
I wear it so much more than my Wife does. The proportions on this with the same thinness as the mirage 38 makes it very very well balanced. As Sylvain Berneron said, stone dials have to be this size which I 100% agree with. Since it’s all dial it actually appears to wear larger than the lug to lug 38mm would suggest. The hue and colour of the dial is JUST nice , a bit more would make it appear very cartoonish. I love it so much I’m dreading the end of the day that I have to take it off and every morning when I get up I’m excited because I get to wear it for the whole day. Also it helps that this thing is photogenic as heck.
我比我太太更常戴上這只錶，這只Mirage 34的比例以及與Mirage 38相同的纖薄錶身，讓它顯得十分平衡。正如Sylvain Berneron所說，寶石錶盤就必須掌握在這樣的尺寸裡，我百分之百贊同這句話。由於錶盤佔據了整個視覺焦點，它戴起來其上錶耳到下錶耳之間38mm的尺寸來得更顯眼。錶盤色澤層次精準得當，稍有偏差就會流於誇張。 我實在太愛這只錶了，甚至每到夜晚要摘下它時都會感到不捨；而每天早上起床又會為能戴上它一整天而滿心期待。而且，這只錶真的非常上鏡。
The conclusion is that this is the best watch I’ve ever owned so far. It is restrained simplicity design done to absolute perfection. My daily work incorporates a lot of Golden ratio and rule of thirds as well , to me the biggest reason why I love it is the more I look at it the better it looks if that makes any sense, and I know it is due to those principles of design. No other indie maker is coming up with something remotely close to this, size, aesthetics. It is already an icon in my book.
總結來說，這是目前為止我擁有過最完美的腕錶。它將內斂的簡約設計演繹到極致，我的日常工作大量涉及黃金比例與三分構圖法則，而對我而言，最熱愛它的理由在於越是細看、越覺其美，我深知這正是源於這些設計法則的運用。沒有任何獨立製錶師的作品能在尺寸與美學上與之相提並論，在我的收藏裡，這已成為一款經典之作。
