About this entry
47% of key specs known. Missing: movement, lug-to-lug, thickness, lug width, weight, hardening, crown, lume.
Manual-wind 42mm watch with a sandwich dial and small seconds at 9. Brand specs: 42mm, brushed 316L case made in Germany, onion crown, display caseback, sapphire front and back with AR coating, 50m, nickel-plated Swiss manual-wind movement with Côtes de Genève and a 46h power reserve, leather strap. The caliber is not named; the layout (small seconds at 9) and the 46h reserve match the ETA/Unitas 6497, as used in the brand's AB Clásico, but no source confirms it, so only the movement type is recorded. The single store listing offers black or blue dials in a brushed ($1,499) or black PVD ($1,550) case; it is sold out and sits in the brand's Archives collection. No review was found; the store page was first created in March 2014.
