Today, Kuoe presents this stunning timepiece rs90006c-gd-bk-it-vgr-sa, certain to delight vintage watch lovers and any style-conscious individual looking to stand out with flair - whether at formal events or in everyday life. From the Royal Smith 90-006 collection, this piece will never miss an opportunity to elevate your wrist with the perfect touch of modernity and timeless elegance. Its refined details, practical features, and enduringly stylish design make it an essential addition to any collection. Its round case features a polished finish that showcases its beautiful gold tone, achieved through a PVD coating. Crafted in 316L stainless steel, it measures 35 mm in diameter, 10 mm thick, and 42 mm in length. Built to accompany you for years to come with comfortable, pleasant wear, it sits gently on the wrist and lets you adjust the time at any moment via the knurled, gold-tone screw-down crown at 3 o'clock. For crystal-clear time reading from every angle, the sapphire crystal over the dial features an anti-reflective coating. It provides optimal protection against shocks and scratches, while its domed shape enhances the watch's vintage appeal. Finally, the screw-down transparent caseback ensures a water resistance of 10 ATM while treating you to an unobstructed view of the movement within.

The Dial

With its clean, refined lines, a stunning round dial sits gracefully within the case, underscoring the subtle, timeless charm of this timepiece. It features a delicate textured base draped in a deep black, lending it a sophisticated understated look, further elevated by an embossed finish that adds a dynamic, refined touch to the watch's design. Every marker is designed for smooth, clear time reading at a glance. At the center, two alpha hands in yellow gold sweep through the hours and minutes, accompanied by a slender gold seconds hand to complete the display. A minute track runs along the outer edge, rendered in dashes and small dots - all treated with SuperLuminova, along with the hands and the four pointed baton indices at 3, 6, 9, and 12 o'clock. This ensures excellent legibility whether in full light or complete darkness. The remaining hours are marked by eight gold triangle-shaped indices. Finally, the brand signs its creation with its name below 12 o'clock, adding "Japan Made" at 6 o'clock alongside the collection name "Royal Smith" and the movement type.

The Movement

Renowned for its exceptional quality and rock-solid reliability, this watch is powered by an automatic movement from the celebrated Japanese manufacturer Miyota. Featuring 24 jewels and beating at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations/hour, or 4 Hz, the caliber 9039 was the movement of choice. It drives the hands with remarkable fluidity, delivering precise and dependable display of hours, minutes, and seconds. It offers a power reserve of 42 hours and is equipped with a stop-seconds mechanism.

The Strap

For this beautiful creation, Kuoe chose a delicate Italian bovine leather strap that deepens the watch's sophisticated charm with an elegant vintage note. It measures 19 cm in length and can be adjusted down to 14 cm. Draped in a beautiful vintage green that gives it a timeless quality, it is accented with beige contrast stitching for a more captivating finish. This strap stands out for its textured, refined design and its slim profile, ensuring comfortable wear and elevating any outfit. With a lug width of 18 mm, it fastens with a gold PVD-coated 316L stainless steel pin buckle for a secure yet supple fit.

Water Resistance

This model offers a water resistance of 10 atmospheres, or 100 meters. This is a genuinely water-resistant model! Ready to dive into any aquatic adventure with you, it handles everything from puddles to the pool without breaking a sweat. Shower, bath, and vigorous swim sessions are no problem at all. That said, our Ocarat watch experts want to make it clear: while this model is water-resistant, it is not suitable for diving (professional or otherwise) and should be kept away from high-pressure cleaning equipment. We also recommend keeping the crown and pushers dry during immersion.
