Newport Skeleton Watch 1658SQ12GD

The Watch

French watchmaking Maison Herbelin presents this timepiece from the Newport collection. This three-hand automatic watch 1658SQ12GD comes in a skeleton version. Its 316L stainless steel case measures 35mm in diameter and 10.05mm thick - a low-carbon alloy renowned for its robustness and corrosion resistance. The steel bezel features five screws and bears the collection name. The winding crown at three o'clock sets the hands. The sapphire crystal protecting the dial is a watchmaking staple prized for its everyday resilience. The screw-down transparent caseback magnifies the watch's skeleton finish. This model is water resistant to 100 meters.

The Dial

This round dial in grey features a skeleton finish - a treat for every horology lover, letting you admire the movement's intricate mechanics in real time. Three central hands display the hours, minutes, and seconds. The baton indices and hands are coated with luminescent material for clear reading even in low light. The minute track runs along the dial's edge in black. At six o'clock, "Made in France" is proudly displayed.

The Movement

Herbelin's watchmaking Maison chose a Swiss movement for this timepiece - specifically the Sellita SW200-S automatic caliber - to power the watch's three hands. It displays hours, minutes, and seconds, beats at 28,800 vph, and delivers a 41-hour power reserve.

The Strap

This model features a brown leather strap secured to your wrist with an ardillon buckle.

Water Resistance

Water resistant to 10 atmospheres, or 100 meters, this watch is ready for aquatic adventures. From puddles to the pool, it handles splashes, showers, baths, and lap swimming without missing a beat. That said, our Ocarat watch experts want to be clear: this model is water resistant but not designed for diving (recreational or professional) and should be kept away from high-pressure cleaning equipment. Avoid operating the crown or pushers while submerged.
