The Chinese dragon is a sacred animal in ancient Chinese mythology, and it's a symbol of power, strength, and good luck. During the days of Imperial China, the Emperor of China used the dragon as a symbol of his imperial strength and power. In Chinese culture, excellent and outstanding people are compared to a dragon. The impression of dragons in a large number of Asian countries has been influenced by Chinese culture, such as in Korea, Vietnam, and Japan. Chinese tradition has always used the dragon totem as the national emblem.

The dial of this watch is made of Cloisonné enamel. Delicate metal strips were bent to the outline of the design of the dragon, and the cellular spaces were filled with natural glaze in different colors, then the dial was heated back and forth at different temperature to form its final look. The unique craftsmenship and subtle temperature make each enamel dial unique.
