Abingdon debuts new watch

By Janice Wood · October 24, 2012 ·

The Abingdon Co. introduces a Limited Edition Amelia timepiece in jet black with a new dual time movement.

The company has changed the movement of the Amelia from the Miyota movement to the Rhonda movement, which is featured in the Elise models. It is a much simpler movement to use and is so intuitive that it was almost decided not to have a manual with this watch, company officials said.

Functions include a pilot watch with flight computer, Zulu/GMT time conversion, luminous hands, and anti glare.

Limited to 100 pieces only, the Jet Black Amelia will only be available online. Orders can be placed now, but deliveries will not begin until Nov. 14.

For more information: 310-736-5673 or TheAbingdonCo.com
