Introduction
In a short time since its first timepieces hit the market in 2017, MING has built a reputation as a small brand that makes high quality and thoughtfully designed watches in very limited quantities. This formula for success was validated in 2019, as the brand took home the GPHG award for Horological Revelation for the 17.06 Copper.
The 18.01 H41 Diver in Titanium was announced and released in 2020. An evolution of the original Abyss 18.01, it features a slightly slimmer profile and a slightly updated aesthetic. The watch is quite a functional dive watch with a depth rating of 1km, as well as extensive use of Super-LumiNova X1 on all lumious areas. It is powered by a ETA 2824-2 movement, which is known for its reliability.

THE DIAL
Featuring Ming's signature luminescent pattern, the 18.01 harbours the same design DNA that has propelled Ming to the dizzying heights they currently find themselves.
THE CASE
With Ming's signature flared lug design, the 18.01 sits on its universal bracelet. While the 18.01's bezel features no knurling, the rough finish from the DLC coating enables comfortable control for the wearer.

Our Perspective
Ming's 2nd successful execution of a dive watch design, the 18.01 signifies Ming's increasingly proficient ability to release different types of watches and expand their horological offerings.
