Under the glass
Six parts, front to back, each named as the garment turns to it.
Chest emblem
Fine raised satin-stitch embroidery, high on the left chest. Each stroke is a narrow rounded cord of thread, with a highlight running along its top and a fine shadow in the channel beside it. It draws a faceted diamond breaking along one side into a partial clockwork of spoked wheels, a dotted rim and small radiating spokes.

- Satin-stitch embroidery
- Position
- High left chest
Drawcords
Flat cord in the body colour runs out through two antique gold eyelets. Each end is finished in an antique gold aglet, and from each aglet hangs a small faceted diamond charm.

Pocket tab and neck label
The pocket tab and the neck label are woven in dark brown against the sand cloth, each carrying the TD monogram in gold. One sits on the lower right of the kangaroo pocket, the other at the centre back of the neck, inside the hood. The monogram follows the colourway's metal.

Back mark
A raised, moulded puff print: a large faceted diamond shattering into shards that flow into a clockwork of gear wheels, springs and an open pocket-watch face with roman numerals. Every facet carries its own tonal shading, and the soft rounded relief stands proud of the cloth, casting small shadows of its own. Above it Timeless Diamond arches in fine script; beneath it, BUILT UNDER PRESSURE. MADE TO LAST. in letterspaced serif caps, and a small solid diamond.

Pressure and time
Desert Legacy is sand-coloured cloth with its fittings in antique gold. The sand stays matte, and the gold embroidery sits close to it in tone, so the emblem reads rich rather than bright.
A diamond is carbon that survived pressure and time. A watch movement is the machine that measures time. The mark puts the two together, a faceted diamond breaking into clockwork, and every part of the garment restates it.
