173° Saphir Bleu

Soon after its introduction in 2016, Zeitwinkel’s model 273° Saphir Fumé with its sapphire dial and the brand’s patented German Silver automatic large-date caliber ZW0103 became a brand-defining icon and one of Zeitwinkel’s best-selling watches. It however also did not take long for watch enthusiasts to suggest a version with a smaller case diameter.

Zeitwinkel’s new model 173° Saphir constitutes a direct response to this frequently expressed request. With its completely redesigned 39.7mm case and a lug-to-lug measurement of 48mm, the watch is reminiscent of its larger diameter counterpart 273°, yet features a distinct design of its own.
