THE DIAL
Inspired by the "Sector dial" watches of the 1940s, the dial is a modern interpretation of this design characterized by a cream sandblasted finish contrasted by black ink markers and heated blue leaf hands that bring color and enhance the watch's legibility.
The multi-layered printed hour markers add that level of depth and three-dimensionality.
A SLIM AND WELL-PROPORTIONED CASE
The case profile has been completely redesigned.
The total thickness of 9.5mm (7.7mm without the glass) has been maintained, even though the Miyota 9039 is 0.7mm thicker than the previous manually wound movement used in the first series—a true technical achievement made possible by a design that prioritized thickness optimization.
The result is a highly refined profile that seamlessly blends tradition and modernity.
The U-shaped domed sapphire crystal, which is complex to produce due to its specific shape, is extremely resistant to scratches.
A RELIABLE AUTOMATIC MOVEMENT
The Miyota 9039 automatic movement powering this watch features a modern architecture and is one of the most reliable on the market. Beating at a high frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour (4Hz) and equipped with 24 jewels, it benefits from an optimized construction that reduces wear while ensuring remarkable accuracy. It also includes hacking seconds and manual winding. With its slimmer profile and a 42-hour power reserve, it stands as a solid alternative to Swiss-made movements.
BRACELET AND BUCKLE
All leather straps are made from full-grain calf leather, meticulously selected and crafted by a renowned French leather goods manufacturer. Available in four colors, each strap is easily interchangeable thanks to a quick-release spring bar system.
The buckle design echoes the distinctive shape of the lugs and features both brushed and polished surfaces, along with engravings on the inner and outer faces.
A HIGH LEVEL OF FINISH
The crown features meticulously crafted finishes.
Machined using CNC technology, its teeth are then lightly polished to preserve their edges while ensuring an optimal grip for winding and time-setting.
Its design is inspired by the crowns found on François Borgel cases from the 1940s and 1950s.
It is equipped with a reinforced gasket system, ensuring 100-meter water resistance despite not being screw-down.
AN ELEGANT AND FUNCTIONAL PACKAGING
Your watch comes in a vintage-inspired travel box, reminiscent of those from the 1930s, designed to be both reusable and perfectly proportioned to the watch size. To add to the vintage feel, it also includes a certificate printed on art paper, sealed with a wax pad as a refined alternative to conventional plastic guarantee cards.
