Fascinating technology and exuberant design is what made the 1954 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL, aka “Gullwing”, a car far ahead of its time. And now following Gullwing’s success and its detailed perfection, from the German city of Sindelfingen and from the home of Dottling comes the Colosimo Double Wing watch safe. Resembling the 300 SL in all its nostalgic detail, the Colosimo Double Wing, has a Wempe Zeitmeister clock, placed in the center, which is just as on the dashboard of the 300 SL.
Besides the eye catching clock, the toggle switches and the covers made from most exquisite red calf leather are a fine embodiment of the interior of the Gullwing. The Colosimo Double Wing isn’t a mere showpiece; it has an intricate locking mechanism which opens on entering a three-digit personal code. Moreover, for the more Gullwing feel, its doors swing open to reveal two precision rotors, each of which moves three clocks to perfection, and provide elegant vaults on either side to stock your watches.
Now, this surely makes the Colosimo Double Wing worthy of your auto-nerdic home. What? You still doubt – well, we’ll dig in for the price and relieve you off your complexity!
