The Director’s Cut edition came in 3 colorways, each limited to 175 pieces, and each named after one of the large highways in Germany. Along with new colors comes an unusual metal bracelet made with large holes near the lugs to allow for more airflow to keep the wrist cool. Werner Aisslinger stripped the design of the A9 dial to its essentials while at the same time making reading the time at night an experience. In brilliant turquoise, the extra-thick superluminova hour blocks of the 240-degree scale ring glow against a dark background, and the tip of the slender minute hand is also luminescent. The design of the A9 particularly emphasizes the precision work of the manufacturing. The primary color, black, represents the rational orientation of the minimalist design.
