About this entry

95% of key specs known. Missing: weight.

Date version (date at 6 with a polished frame) of the Commuter 38; the no-date version is commuter-38, sold from the same product pages at the same price. In 2023 only the 36 offered a date; the 38 date option was on sale by 2025. Caliber: the brand states it inconsistently. The current product text says the date variants "utilize the 9015", while the specification image says "Miyota 9039 / 9019"; Monochrome named the 9019 for the earlier 36mm date version. Miyota lists the 9019 (a closely related caliber with the same published 3.90mm, 24-jewel, 28,800 vph, 42h spec) as discontinued, and offers the 9015 with a date-at-6 calendar (CAL.9015-20Y), so the product text's 9015 is recorded. Everything else matches the no-date Commuter 38: ref. 8233 (5th generation, with extra underside AR layers, Grade A BGW9 lume and quick-release spring bars per Traska's Reference Points page); brand drawing 38.5mm, 46mm lug-to-lug, 10.5mm with the box sapphire (8.75mm without), 20mm lugs tapering to 16mm. Hardening: "almost 1200HV" on case and bracelet per the brand; method not disclosed. Regulated in four positions, "typically -10 to +20 s/day". Clasp: brand-described "tool-less" push-button micro-adjust, six positions spaced 1.35mm apart, PUSH button inside the clasp; two half-links included; recorded as toolless as for the other Traska models. Bracelet details and screw-in caseback per Fratello's Commuter 38 review. Adriatic Blue has a sunburst dial; the others are lacquered. The store's Adriatic Blue image file names are swapped ("Comuter-38-Blue-No-Date.jpg" is the date version). No weight published or found. Design widely compared to the Rolex Oyster Perpetual by reviewers. On 2026-10-21 the date option was in stock only in Florida Coral; the other colours were sold out.
