Watch Rec Spec EX OG Sunray P-38-RSTI-DGY

The Watch

The Praesidus Rec Spec EX OG Sunray, reference P-38-RSTI-DGY, embodies rugged elegance with its Grade 2 Titanium case. This material is exceptionally lightweight yet remarkably durable - a perfect match for those who lead an active lifestyle. The case features a matte finish achieved through a sandblasting process, giving it a subtle, modern appeal. At 38 mm in diameter and 11.8 mm thick, it sits confidently on the wrist without overpowering it. The snap-back case construction ensures reliable water resistance to 5 ATM. The dial is protected by a hardened K1 mineral crystal, known for its scratch resistance and enhanced by an anti-reflective coating for optimal legibility in any conditions.

The Dial

The dial of the Praesidus Rec Spec EX OG Sunray is a masterful blend of functionality and understated elegance. Its black face is a pleasure to look at, enhanced by a stunning sunray finish that scatters light with a soft, captivating intensity. The Arabic numerals are generously coated in SuperLuminova, making the time easy to read even in total darkness. Beyond the hours, the dial features minutes and seconds indications, complemented by precise indices for smooth, effortless timekeeping. A classic railroad minute track frames the dial, while a day/date window at 3 o'clock integrates seamlessly into the overall aesthetic.

The Movement

Powering the Praesidus Rec Spec EX OG Sunray is the automatic Seiko NH36 caliber - a proven movement from Japan's legendary watchmaking corporation. Built for reliability and precision, it beats at 21,600 vph (3 Hz) and delivers a 39-hour power reserve, so the watch keeps running even after a full day off the wrist. Functions include hours, minutes, and seconds, along with a full calendar displaying both day and date. The rotor's oscillating mass is fully visible, a captivating detail for anyone who appreciates fine mechanical watchmaking.

The Strap

The Praesidus Rec Spec EX OG Sunray offers a carefully curated selection of straps to match any style. Via the dropdown menu, you can choose a brown NATO nylon strap - perfect for a relaxed, sporty look - or opt for an aged beige sand leather strap for a more refined, formal feel. Both options deliver comfort and durability, with a 20 mm lug width for a secure, optimal fit. The classic pin buckle closure keeps things simple and dependable - a feature any watch lover will appreciate.

Water Resistance

The Praesidus Rec Spec EX OG Sunray is water resistant to 5 ATM, equivalent to 50 meters of depth - more than enough to handle everyday splashes and accidental immersion. It is not, however, designed for intense aquatic activities such as scuba diving. Water resistance is secured by a snap-back case, which not only reinforces the seal but also contributes to the watch's clean, classic profile.
