HAMBURG blue bronze / Vintage mocha

Take the bronze-cased HAMBURG off its mesh and put it on mocha leather and it stops looking like an object and starts looking like a possession. Sternglas offers this blue and bronze combination both ways; this is the softer one.

The HAMBURG collection is named for the city Sternglas has designed from since 2016 and takes its cues from seafaring instruments. That means a dial built for reading: printed numerals at every hour, a fine minute scale at the outer edge, luminous hands, and a 42 mm case that gives all of it space to breathe.

The blue dial is framed by a bronze-toned case measuring 42 mm across, with 20 mm lugs, a quartz movement and a date display. Sapphire crystal, double-domed and anti-reflective coated on both sides, protects it, and the rating is 5 bar. The Vintage strap in mocha is a mid-brown leather that picks up the bronze rather than fighting it.

Blue, brown and bronze in one line of sight, which sounds busy on paper and is not on the wrist.

Perfect for: bronze case watches on leather, blue dial brown strap watches, warm-toned 42 mm watches.
