This Mondaine watch is a real eye-catcher. The color-coordinated, rose gold-colored hands give it an elegant and classy look. The 30 mm case made of cracked IP rose gold stainless steel impresses with its harmonious design. The black leather strap not only complements the look of this watch, it is also very comfortable to wear. IP (Ion Plating) Gold Plating is one of the newest surface coating procedures and also the most advanced till date. It involves adding a titanium nitride layer to the base metal, in a vapor form. The end result is a harder and more durable surface which offers greater brightness and sheen than the traditional methods of plating. In fact, experiments conducted to gauge the durability of ion plating have shown that IP plated surfaces are five to eight times more durable and resilient to corrosion and wear as compared to surfaces obtained through other plating processes.
