A Rugged Sports Watch
A sports watch needs to be robust for life's everyday adventures. The Second Hour Mandala Burst certainly fits the bill, with scratch resistant sapphire crystal on both the front and back of the watch, a case and bracelet that have also been made more scratch resistant with treatments making them almost 4 time harder than normal 316L steel, 100 meters of water resistance with a screw-down crown, (the same as many dive watches,) and the extremely reliable 9015 automatic high beat movement with Parashock anti-shock protection. The Mandala Burst is equally prepared for evening adventures too, with it's Swiss Super-LumiNova BGW9 cyan blue lume.
An Elegant Dress Watch
The mesmerizing guilloché pattern on the fumé dial plays very nicely with the light, and as the dial moves, offers a surprising 3D effect that catches the eye. Little touches such as the matching green stripe on the equally elegant crown, or the matching green font in the nicely centered date window all speak to the sophistication of the design. Here even the travel case picks up on elements of the dial pattern and has the same green accents too. The overall bowl shape of the dial design, along with the gradual change from an almost black outer edge to green core, adds some depth that draws you in. It's great to see unique design touches that really help set this design apart, with the stunning combination of applied indices and double pronged tips on the diamond-cut and faceted hour and minute hands. In short, there is a lot more to see here than just a nice mix of brushed and polished finishes in this outstanding design.
Regulated for Better Accuracy
