Ice Blue Weekend GMT Watch A1304/A

The Watch

Perrelet is a brand of exceptional craftsmanship, founded in 1777 by Abraham-Louis Perrelet. A passionate and gifted master watchmaker, he pioneered the self-winding movement. To this day, the Swiss watchmaking house continues to craft highly sophisticated timepieces built for your greatest adventures - engineered for extreme conditions, Swiss Made certified, and combining precision with durability for everyday wear. Among them, the Weekend GMT Ice Blue Watch A1304 stands out as the perfect companion for every occasion. Classic yet timeless, it pairs a modern-retro aesthetic with an unmistakably elegant character. Designed for all genders, it features a round case crafted entirely in brushed and polished stainless steel, offering exceptional resistance and a brilliant finish. The silver-tone case measures 39 mm in diameter with a thickness of 9.55 mm. It is topped by a sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating for crystal-clear, glare-free reading. The various central indicators are controlled by the grey, knurled, signed crown at 3 o'clock. The timepiece delivers 5 ATM water resistance, secured by an engraved caseback held by screws. The caseback features a mineral glass aperture revealing the openworked, rhodium-plated rotor in motion.

The Dial

Charming and captivating, this dial gives the watch a bold, striking look. Its glacier-blue base is inspired by the depths of glaciers, winter clouds, and the frost-laden layers of pine forests. Round and domed, the dial is finished with a sunray treatment that catches the light with an iridescent shimmer. Its edge features a minute track alternating with silver-tone baton indices as hour markers - all swept over by grey hands anchored at the center. A slim seconds hand runs alongside a long and a short hand with pointed tips, indicating minutes and hours respectively. A fourth hand - with a red, triangular, luminescent tip - joins them to display the GMT function hours, shown in Arabic numerals in 24-hour format around the dial. A date window is positioned at 3 o'clock, while the Swiss Made designation and movement type appear near 6 o'clock. The brand's logo and name are placed beneath the 12 o'clock double index as a signature.

The Movement

At the heart of this case beats an automatic movement developed in-house - the Perrelet caliber P-401. Delivering exceptional precision and vibration resistance, it features 25 jewels and beats at a frequency of 28,800 vph (4 Hz), with a solid power reserve of 42 hours.

The Strap

This watch comes with two straps, so you can choose the one that best suits your style.

The first strap is crafted in calfskin leather with tone-on-tone stitching that adds a touch of elegance. Its beautiful blue hue gives it a striking look. Supple yet sturdy, it ensures all-day comfort on the wrist. The strap features an alligator-embossed pattern that gracefully follows the contours of your wrist, and is secured by a silver-tone pin buckle engraved with the Perrelet logo - matching the case finish.

The second strap is crafted in stainless steel. Perfectly durable, it offers a secure yet lightweight fit. It features 7 rows of "rice grain" links that elegantly follow the curves of your wrist. Its grey tone pairs effortlessly with any accessory. The strap is fitted with a folding clasp for easy handling.

Water Resistance

This model offers water resistance of 5 atmospheres (50 m). Beautifully crafted to turn heads, it's built to handle everyday elements without compromise. You can wear it in the shower - though the Ocarat team recommends leaving it by the sink to preserve its brilliance and integrity over time. Swimming and diving, however, are strongly discouraged, as exposure could damage the watch and lead to costly repairs.
