The Astronomer watch, new from Seah (R)
We’ve written about this Swiss-made brand before. We’ve even reviewed these timepieces. Incredibly well made and beautifully crafted for men and women, SEAH® watches hold a full patent for their unique design. The watches are all inspired in design by astrology, and offer the wearer a quiet, personal statement. This year the brand (whose name is an ancient word for “time”) celebrates its 10th anniversary. New for fall are four new models – two men’s and two women’s’ – that join the Sun Collection. We particularly love this striking men’s piece that utilizes the Greek zodiac signs on the dial, and features a rotating bezel that allows the wearer to position the marker at his own zodiac sign. Powered by a Ronda Swiss quartz movement, the new series is created in a limited edition of 50 pieces. This model for men is called The Astronomer (the new women’s model is called The Celestial). The Astronomer features a 46mm stainless steel case, water resistant to 10ATM, with a black lacquer dial. The sapphires crystal features five layers of anti-reflective coating and the watch has a screw-in case back engraved with the serial number. The bezel features a patented wave design and the alligator strap is made by Hirsch. One of the best facets of the watch: it is affordably priced – as all SEAH® watches retail from $950 to $2,500.
