NAOS XS Edition mother of pearl dark blue gold / Classic 16 camel

Camel leather, a gold case and a dark blue shell dial: three warm-to-cool steps that land somewhere very close to autumn. The Sternglas NAOS XS Edition Mother of Pearl works best in exactly that season.

The Naos line is where Sternglas practices reduction most strictly, keeping the dial free of anything that does not aid legibility. That restraint is what allows a natural material to take over. This edition's dial is genuine mother-of-pearl in dark blue, and it was the first Naos XS specified with Luminova.

Case: 33 mm in diameter with 16 mm lugs, gold-toned and polished. Movement: Ronda 784, a Swiss quartz caliber, with date. Crystal: domed sapphire with double anti-reflective coating. Water resistance: 5 ATM. The Klassik 16 leather strap in camel bridges the gold case and the deep dial rather than picking a side.

A considered combination for someone who dresses in tones rather than colors, and who wants a compact watch that still has something to look at.

Perfect for: camel leather and gold watches, autumn wardrobe timepieces, natural shell dials in blue.
