The car’s illuminated fascia houses 1,846 laser-etched ‘stars’ that depict the timeline of a total eclipse. A unique timepiece, inset with a brilliant-cut 0.5-carat diamond, recalls the ‘Diamond Ring’ effect observed during eclipses. This marks a new venture for Rolls-Royce, as it’s the first instance of integrating a gemstone into a clock’s bezel.
Lastly, the vehicle’s interior pays homage to the 360-degree twilight effect seen during a solar eclipse’s totality. Seats feature a bi-colored design with intricate perforated artwork, alongside other bespoke touches.
