Accompanying the new, more flamboyant case design, the 57.04 Iris comes with an equally attention-grabbing new dial finish. What might be familiar are the laser-cut indices on the underside of the top sapphire crystal, filled with Ming’s proprietary Polar White lume compound, as well as the shape of the blue hour, minute, and central chronograph seconds hands (coated, not heat-blued). However, new to this is the iridescent dial treatment over the brass dial base, which gives it a chameleon-like quality, constantly shifting between the cold color spectrum of purples, blues, and even sometimes a hint of green. Physically, the dial is quite deeply dished and engraved with radial spokes that act as minute markers at the dial’s edge. But the color is certainly the star of the show.
