With a grainy texture this California Dial captures all the colours of a day out on a Black Sand Beach. With extra strong lume and the "error-proof" design combining Arabic and Roman numerals, a highly visible and easy to read dial.
The SunSet version captures the final moments of a day outside when the last sunrays turn the entire sky into a burning orange!
The core of your new watch is a modern and reliable automatic movement made in Japan: The NH-38A is produced by TMI, a subsidiary of Seiko.
The 12 lignes wide movement swings with up to 21,600 bph and up to 41 hours after you take the watch off your wrist. With 24 jewels and Seiko Magic Lever unidirectional winding, the NH-38A is a reliable calibre well known across the world for its use by micro brands and watchmakers.
The black coated case of the WCD is constructed to withstand pressure and damages more easily than other watches. With a slightly doomed ultra-scratch resistant sapphire crystal, solid steel case back and thick case walls the watch mechanism is well protected within. If assembled correctly (or if ordered as assembled watch) the case is water resistant to 100m diving depth (measured at 10 ATM pressure). The flank of this case is a combination of polished and brushed surfaces with each different layer contrasting with the previous one, splitting the case side into fractions.
The WCD is delivered with both, a waxxed vintage leather strap and a fully water resistant FKM strap, both equipped with a quick release spring bar system, to easily switch them without needing any tools.
FKM, which stands for Fluoroelastomer, exhibits outstanding resistance to a wide range of chemicals, including sweat, water and dirt and maintains its elasticity and shape even after prolonged compression, contributing to its longevity and performance under harsh and wet conditions.
The Italian leather strap is a thick, but soft strap made of waxed calf leather from Italy and manufactured in Spain. Please note that while the leather is waxed, we do not recommend to submerge a leather strap, especially not in seawater.
