The Case and Dial
The case of the Aethalia watches consists of three pieces: bezel, case middle and screwed bottom, made entirely of biocompatible grade 3 titanium or 18-karat gold. With a diameter of 40 mm, the case features dynamic and ergonomic shapes. The extended lugs enhance the uniqueness of the design and contribute to the watch’s optimal weight and fit. The crown, with quadruple internal o-ring seals, guarantees water resistance up to 10 atmospheres (100 meters). Through the sapphire crystal porthole positioned at the bottom, the mechanical hand-wound OISA Caliber 29-50 Five Bridges movement can be admired in all its beauty.
The sandblast-effect enameled dial, on which the hour markers are displayed, is rimmed by a flange that provides for the minute track, while the central part features guilloché craftsmanship. The anti-reflective sapphire crystal ensures maximum transparency and readability, along with excellent scratch resistance.
At 6 o’clock the Made in Italy inscription stands out, which together with the Italian flag underlines the identity of the OISA project.
Aethalia is offered with either a full grain natural Italian leather strap, produced by Tuscan tanneries and handcrafted, or a biocompatible titanium bracelet for maximum lightness and exceptional resistance to scratches and wear.
