Sternglas S01-SD01-HE02 Sedius Mens Watch

The innovative sector dial of the Sedius makes this watch a reliable companion for everyday use, particularly due to the sweeping seconds hand. The Sedius combines two opposing design philosophies into a unique timepiece. While the Bauhaus style represents functional and minimalist design, the Art Deco style embodies elegance, decorative details, and sensuality. These two design approaches, often considered contradictory in essence, find a harmonious connection in the Sedius. The classic sector dial reflects the duality of these two styles. By arranging several concentric circles divided by lines into designated sectors, an optical interplay between simplicity and sophistication is created. The center of the dial remains clear and undivided, ensuring exceptional readability. For this reason, sector dials are also referred to as “scientific dials” or “railroad dials.” A standout feature of the Sedius is the analog quartz movement VH31 from Seiko. This movement retains the reliability of a quartz watch while offering a sweeping seconds hand, similar to that of automatic watches. The 40 mm case, made from robust polished 316L stainless steel, encases a satin-finished silver-white dial with a rounded cut. The new hands and the day/night engraving on the case back create a striking contrast, highlighting the connection between Bauhaus and Art Deco. The uniqueness of the VH31 quartz movement lies in its design: the stepper motor has been modified to operate with four beats per second (2 Hz). This feature gives the Sedius a battery life of up to 24 months and an accuracy of ± 15 seconds per month.
