Praesidus is a Swiss watchmaking brand born of unmatched expertise and recognized for its reliability and durability. The house crafts high-quality watches with elegant, timeless designs that blend the classic style of the 1960s with modern functionality, making it effortless to read the time at a glance. Praesidus presents this stunning Rec Spec OG Popcorn watch - the perfect embodiment of harmony and elegance. It features a round case in 316L stainless steel with a brushed-polished finish, measuring 38 mm in diameter and 11.80 mm thick. A K1 mineral crystal with sapphire treatment sits on the surface to shield the central elements from scratches. The central components are adjusted via the knurled crown positioned at 4 o'clock for easy handling. Finally, the snap-on caseback provides a water resistance of 5 ATM.

The Dial

The black dial is the detail that brings refinement and style to this watch. Round in shape with a sandblasted finish, its edge features a minutes railway track with white graduations that create a perfect contrast with the background. This surrounds a set of indexes that clearly communicate the hours - Arabic numerals coated, like the two hour and minute hands, with a SuperLuminova treatment for easy reading in low-light conditions. Gray in tone, they are joined by a seconds hand, and for added precision, a dual window sits at 3 o'clock. Rectangular in shape, it displays the day in abbreviated English and the date. Finally, the brand signature appears below 12 o'clock, while watch specifications are displayed at the opposite end.

The Movement

Praesidus has equipped this watch with an NH36 automatic movement featuring 24 jewels. A Seiko caliber renowned for its precision, it beats at a frequency of 21,600 vph and delivers a power reserve of 39 hours. Highly reliable, it drives the central hands with outstanding efficiency.

The Strap

This beautiful timepiece comes with two strap options so you can choose the one that best suits your style. Both measure 20 mm wide at the lug, wear comfortably, and are each fitted with a silver pin buckle clasp.

The first strap is made from canvas in a striking black. Of canvas type, it offers a soft feel and adds a modern touch to the watch. For long-lasting durability, it is reinforced with tone-on-tone stitching.

The second strap is crafted from tropical rubber. Also in black, its textured surface and perforations give it a distinctive character. Suited to all your activities, it will keep you looking sharp every step of the way.

Water Resistance

With a water resistance of 5 atmospheres, equivalent to 50 meters, this watch offers an entry-level introduction to water resistance. While not designed for bathing, swimming, or diving, you can comfortably forget to remove it in the shower. That said, our experts recommend keeping this timepiece dry to preserve its movement for years to come.
