Blue Inspiration Automatic Watch 1647AP15BR

The Watch
Inspired by the curves and style of 1950s timepieces, this stunning 1647AP15BR watch from the Inspiration Automatic collection is sure to win you over. Herbelin set out to highlight the retro character and refined detail of this men's timepiece. It features a 40mm stainless steel case, crowned by a beautifully notched crown set with a blue stone at the 3 o'clock position - perfect for setting the hands or date whenever needed. The brand further nods to its vintage roots with a domed crystal. Crafted from sapphire glass, it offers outstanding scratch and shock resistance. Finally, the caseback is transparent, giving you a breathtaking view of the movement's intricate mechanics in motion.

The Dial
It's impossible to look away from this superb round dial, which sits perfectly within the case. Its deep navy blue hue evokes the shimmering depths of the ocean, shifting beautifully with the surrounding light. The sunray finish adorning the surface makes it feel like a new watch with every glance. The hours are marked by slightly triangular applied indexes around the edge, complemented by a white minute track for effortless precision. Elegant silver dauphine hands indicate the hours and minutes, while a slender, elongated seconds hand sweeps across the dial. A small white date window at 6 o'clock adds a practical touch, and the brand name is displayed at 12 o'clock in refined silver lettering.

The Movement
Herbelin chose to equip this model with a SELLITA SW200-1 automatic movement, delivering precise operation of both the hands and the date window. The movement features 26 jewels and offers an estimated power reserve of 38 hours.

The Strap
Flanking the case on both sides is a genuine cowhide leather strap. Its warm, patinated brown hue adds a vintage touch to this classic watch - a nod to the 1950s. Tone-on-tone stitching along the edges adds both style and extra durability. The strap fastens securely on your wrist with a polished stainless steel pin buckle.

Water Resistance
With a water resistance of 3 atmospheres (30 meters), this watch is not built for aquatic adventures. You can wear it while washing your hands or tackling light household chores involving water - but the Ocarat team strongly recommends leaving it on your nightstand before hopping in the shower or bath, and locking it in the hotel safe before heading to the pool or the turquoise sea on your vacation.
