Sternglas S01-BE08-HE05 Berlin Mens Watch

On 15 December 1846, a day that will go down in history, the first train travelled between Berlin and Hamburg. This moment, which marked the beginning of a new era of travel, is the inspiration for our Berlin model - a watch that captures the wonder of that time and combines it with the serenity of a bygone century.

The 38 mm case of the Berlin is more than just a container for time. It is a window into a time when every journey was a discovery and every destination an adventure. With its embossed alligator leather strap, this model brings vintage style back to life. With a height of just 8 mm, the Berlin watch is not only an eye-catcher, but also a comfortable companion on the wrist. It combines timeless style with minimalist design and sapphire crystal - a material normally reserved for the luxury watch market. Sapphire, the third hardest transparent material in the world, not only makes the watch glass more resistant, but also virtually unscratchable in everyday use. The double anti-reflective coating also ensures a perfect view of the minimalist yet functional dial with date and day of the week display.

On the underside of the 10 mm high case is a lovingly crafted engraving of the Berlin railway station in Hamburg. This station, built in 1857, was for 46 years the westernmost terminus of the railway line that once made the "fast" journey between Hamburg and Berlin possible in just 9 hours - a tribute to the pioneering days of rail transport. Inside the watch is the precise Miyota GM02 quartz calibre - with over 70 years of experience, Miyota, like us, stands for quality and precision. With a battery life of up to 36 months and a rate accuracy of -20/+20 seconds per month, this movement combines tradition with modern technology. The "Heritage" leather strap, also a masterpiece of Bavarian craftsmanship, rounds off the overall picture. Tanned through instead of lacquered, each strap retains the natural feel of the leather and makes each watch unique.

In the Berlin watch, history and craftsmanship merge to create a timepiece that not only counts the hours, but also tells a story. A story of discoveries, technical marvels and a time when every journey was an adventure. Wear a piece of history on your wrist and feel the flair of times gone by, paired with the precision and elegance of modern watchmaking.
