SKL 1904 Sky Blue

The SKL 1904 Sky Blue is a square Seiko Mod watch. It features the most coveted hue of the moment, a milky lagoon turquoise. All in the oldest wristwatch frame. Black Roman numerals assert their authority over the soft color, the screwed case frames the whole. And the contrast of eras makes the piece. A 1904 design, a modern color. It's the square that makes purists smile and everyone else fall in love.

Turquoise in a screwed frame

The milky hue is even and full, and the black Roman numerals gain a poster-like graphic quality. Blued hands, discreet date, 38 mm 316L stainless steel case with visible screws, 12 mm thick, sapphire glass, transparent case back. The brushed steel of the bracelet softens the color just enough for everyday wear. The blued hands on the turquoise create an unexpected camaieu. Blue on blue, which photos flatten and the wrist reveals.

A true Seiko NH35 caliber

The NH35 in this Seiko Mod comes from Seiko Instruments' Japanese workshops. Automatic with 24 jewels, 21,600 vibrations per hour, 41 hours of power reserve. Winding by wearing or by the crown, hacking seconds for setting. Accuracy of -20 to +40 seconds per day, the caliber standard.

Its seasons

Linen summers, terraces, outdoor weddings: it is naturally sunny, and awakens winter on a dark coat. 3 ATM water resistance: rain and splashes, no showering or swimming. The 38 mm makes it an obvious unisex watch. On June terraces, it attracts compliments before the waiter.

A gift that makes an impact

The turquoise upon unboxing evokes a reaction that classic watches never achieve. It's the gift for summer birthdays and grand surprises. 3-year warranty, in its SKL case.

Style advice

Wear it alone, sleeves rolled up: the color does the work, the square makes the style. Link-by-link adjustment by a watchmaker.
