THE DIAL

The dial this is actually the frost white-colored version, with a very enjoyable gentle eggshell / creamy tinge into it.

The look is straightforward and offers good legibility - they describe it as being “Scandinavian minimalism with Nederlander experimentalism inside a New You are able to fashion-forward setting” - that is clearly fairly generic marketing speak.

The straight pitched hands possess a pointed tip and therefore are polished steel, supplying a number of glare with respect to the position. The omission of the seconds hands is really a clever method of disguising the quarta movement movement, and in addition it maintains simplicity.

We've well-made applied baton hour markers, having a double baton at 12. They've rounded edges at the very top and bottom which softens the look of them.

The moon phase indicator may be the dial’s primary focus and certainly draws the attention. Her stock Ronda 706.B wheel, but thankfully it’s a pleasant one therefore it looks in position. It features a delicate border surrounding it, which yields neat focus on detail.

The emblem is printed within the top half, having a minute track round the periphery. All printing is and also precise.

THE Situation

How big the situation is quite elegant at 38mm across - among the smaller sized watches I’ve reviewed. It is also incredibly lightweight at 50g such as the strap, producing a very comfortable put on.

A lot of the situation is polished, except for brushed sides. The polished steel bezel particularly delivers flamboyant glare. The overall finishing from the situation is nice.

The situation includes a small push-pull crown, using the M from the emblem embossed around the finish - it’s simple to use and it has good grip.

The caseback is guaranteed by 6 screws, and it is polished having a enjoyable engraved pattern encompassing the central deeply engraved emblem.

Sitting on the top from the situation is really a flat azure very, with very good clearness.

THE MOVEMENT

The movement used may be the Ronda 706.B. It isn't much to check out, but because may be the situation with all of Swiss Made quarta movement movements it’ll complete the job, will stand the ages and can end up being a great workhorse,

It has a whopping 5 jewels, along with a 44 month battery existence.

THE STRAP

The strap is rather petit at 18mm wide in the lugs, reducing lower to 16mm in the buckle. It’s smaller sized than I’m accustomed to but is really a appropriate size for that 38mm situation.

Nowhere leather comes with an alligator print placed on top. It's matching more dark blue stitching that is offers a very classy, sophisticated impression.

The leather is supple and soft, and it is very comfortable around the wrist.

The buckle is really a standard tang type, having a rounded design into it and also the emblem deeply engraved on top bar.
