SKL Nautil Open Heart Gold-Black

The SKL Nautil Open Heart Gold-Black is a Seiko Mod open-heart watch. It uses contrast to create a spectacle. The striated black of the dial creates darkness, while the rose gold of the case and bracelet provide the light. And the mechanical window beats between the two like a illuminated stage. It's the Open Heart of evenings, dramatic in the theatrical sense: every oscillation of the balance wheel catches a golden reflection. A watch that continuously performs its play, without an intermission.

The Black and Rose Gold Stage

The black dial's striations lead to the opening where the golden mechanism comes to life, encircled by the rose gold of the case. Applied gold hour markers, 41mm 316L steel case, sapphire crystal, transparent case back on the "backstage" side. The absence of a date keeps the composition pure: black, gold, movement. Under the spotlights of a restaurant, the effect is maximal. Each oscillation reflects a different golden gleam depending on the angle: the watch literally winks under the spotlights. The black striations rigorously frame the scene.

The Seiko NH38 Automatic Movement

This Seiko Mod features a genuine NH38 manufactured in Japan by Seiko Instruments, the no-date version of the automatic caliber. 24 jewels, 21,600 vibrations per hour, 41 hours of power reserve, winding by wear or by crown. Accuracy of -20 to +40 seconds per day, the caliber's standard.

Where it Performs

Dinners, galas, end-of-year parties: this is an after-six watch, superb with a black shirt or a soft tuxedo. 5 ATM water resistance: showering and surface swimming are covered. Just avoid diving with it. Under the chandeliers of a wedding, it steals glances from the dance floor.

The Spectacular Gift

To mark a significant milestone with a piece that impresses both upon unboxing and on the wrist. The rose gold creates the effect, the balance wheel extends it. 3-year warranty, in its SKL case.

Finishing Detail

The matching butterfly clasp keeps the wrist uninterrupted. And the rose gold PVD maintains its shine over time with a simple soft cloth. Adjustment at the jeweler's.
