The Cutler and Gross - 9852 is a visual homage to John le Carré and the covert world of 1970s London espionage. The refined silhouette features subtle milling along the browline, sloping gently into dropped hinges for a quietly commanding presence, with gold-plated Compass Star pins accenting the front and temples. It is tradecraft as design language—nothing flashy, everything considered—hand-finished with the hours of workshop patience the reference deserves. Tradecraft styling, drawn without a single flashy line. Handmade in Italy. Includes Cutler & Gross box, case, cleaning cloth, and 1-year manufacturer warranty.
