With a 39 mm diameter, it suits all wrist sizes for men. Its brushed surface with polished edges gives this timepiece a uniquely charming style. The bezel surrounds a flat sapphire crystal that protects the dial from everyday scratches and shocks. At 3 o'clock, a beautifully positioned crown allows manual adjustment of the hands and date window. Finally, the case back is secured by seven screws, ensuring 200-meter water resistance. It is transparent, offering a stunning view of the movement's inner workings.

The Dial

Every line of this dial has been expertly crafted for effortless, enjoyable timekeeping. The round dial features a beautiful Clous de Paris finish with refined lines, elevated by a stunning sunray blue tone that adds a distinctive touch to your wrist. At the center, gray time indicators create a perfect harmony with the rest of the watch. These include two main hands and a slender seconds hand. Moving across the baton indexes - doubled at 6 o'clock, 9 o'clock, and 12 o'clock - they display hours, minutes, and seconds with complete reliability. Both the hands and indexes are coated with a luminescent treatment for impeccable legibility in low-light conditions. A date window with a white background sits at 3 o'clock, while a minute track runs along the perimeter for easy time reading. The movement type and the "Swiss Made" label are printed at 6 o'clock. Finally, the dial bears the brand's name and logo beneath the 12 o'clock index.

The Movement

This watch is powered by a Swiss automatic movement with perlage and côtes de Genève finishing. Based on the Sellita SW200-1, the in-house caliber ML115 displays hours, minutes, seconds, and the date with exceptional precision. It beats at 28,800 vibrations per hour (4 Hz) and features 26 jewels. It is equipped with an Incabloc system, providing reliable shock protection. Its power reserve is 38 hours.

The Strap

A stainless steel bracelet lends this watch a sophisticated edge. Its gray hue pairs beautifully with the case. The brushed/polished finish across its five rows of links gives it a charming, vintage appeal that is sure to impress. Highly durable, it will adorn your wrist in complete comfort, whatever the occasion. It fastens securely with a butterfly deployant clasp.

Water Resistance

This model offers water resistance of 20 atmospheres, or 200 meters. This is a watch built to go deep with you - it's rated for freediving! And since it laughs at water, you can also use high-pressure washers while wearing it without any worries. Shower, bath, lap swimming, and freediving are all fair game. However, for scuba diving with tanks, our experts recommend a timepiece with a higher water resistance rating. One more note: never operate the crown or pushers while submerged, to protect the movement's integrity.
