BERLIN black gold / SuperSlim 20 gold

The SuperSlim is a stainless steel bracelet just 2.2 mm thick. On the Sternglas BERLIN, a watch already built around thinness, that number matters more than it sounds.

The BERLIN commemorates the 1846 rail link between Hamburg and Berlin, with the city's old Berliner Bahnhof engraved on the caseback. Its distinguishing feature is a day-of-week display alongside the date, run by a Miyota GM02 quartz caliber with an approximate 36-month battery and a choice of English or German day names.

This one puts a black dial and gold hands into a 38 mm gold-tone stainless steel case, 45 mm lug to lug, with double-domed sapphire and anti-reflective coating on both faces, rated to 5 bar. The gold-finished SuperSlim bracelet is 316L steel, 20 mm at the lugs, closing on a brushed 316L clasp. No leather, no bulk, no break-in period.

Slim case, slim bracelet, high-contrast dial. It slides under a shirt cuff without a fight.

Perfect for: slim steel bracelet watches, gold-tone quartz watches, day-date watches for dress shirts.
