About this entry

The original 42mm Leoncino ("little lion"), a 1960s-inspired squarish cushion case launched in 2014 with a Miyota 9015; the STP1-11 and Sellita SW200-1 builds are Leoncino (STP1-11) and Leoncino (Sellita SW200-1). Brand spec: 316L steel with polished top, brushed sides and bead-blasted back, 42mm excluding crown, screw-down crown, thick double-domed sapphire with AR coating (side not stated), Super-LumiNova C3 hands and dial with cut-out markers, 200 m. The photos show no date window, so the movement's date is recorded as not shown. Caseback differs by edition: a sapphire display back with DLC anti-fingerprint coating on the Leoncino, Matau, Tamanuitera and Rangi and Papa (Waka: sapphire front and rear crystals), and a solid hand-engraved back on Kia Atawhai and Taiaha. Editions: the Leoncino (limited to 667), then Art Collection pieces individually hand-engraved by New Zealand artist Andrew Biggs: Matau (fish-hook motif, 10 pieces), Tamanuitera (eight 1.5mm black diamonds on the case sides and 18ct rose gold wire inlays, 10 pieces; the photos on its page show an engraved Leoncino but the inlays aren't distinguishable), Rangi and Papa (case front and lugs, 20), Waka (20), Kia Atawhai (engraved and numbered solid back, 10) and Taiaha (front, lugs and back engraved, 10), which the brand calls the last of the original 42mm Leoncino. All sold out; the brand's archive lists them.
