The watch is 43mm of raw presence, its dial carved open so the mechanics are front and center, which seems to be what people want these days; understandably so.

To cut a long story short, I was born in France and moved to Portugal at the age of 8, finally settling in Switzerland at the age of 24 in search of mastery in the art of watchmaking.

15+ hour, 27+ min ago (261+ words) The domed, grained dial combines simplicity with functional clarity. Large Arabic numerals and a railroad-style minute track are printed in contrasting tones for maximum readability, with Super-LumiNova GL old radium on the numerals and hands. The bright orange central seconds hand, featuring a rectangular luminous block, adds contrast and character. Reflecting Cimier's recent move toward bolder colour expression seen in the POP collection, the 47" North series offers five dial variations: black, white, gradient pebble grey, moss green, and river blue. Each colourway gives the compact field watch its own personality, ranging from classic to casual, and even seriously fun for the blue and green versions. The series is powered by the automatic ETA 2824-2, a proven calibre known for its reliability and ease of service. The movement runs at 28,800 vibrations/hour and provides a 38-hour power reserve with a stop-seconds mechanism…...
