Enjoying the Patina with a Handmade Strap

STOWA was born in Hornberg, in Germany's Black Forest, in 1927. It is a long-established brand that, along with LACO and Lange & Söhne, supplied pilot watches to the former German Air Force during World War II.
The model released by TiCTAC is a bronze version of the classic and highly popular "Marine Original," brimming with vintage charm. Bronze (CuSn8), which develops a beautiful patina over time, is used for the 41mm case and case back, offering not only strength but also excellent corrosion resistance.
The movement is the "Unitas 6498-1." Through the see-through case back, one can observe the swan neck regulator and screw balance, among other components, marking the passage of time. The dial is crafted from high-purity solid silver.
The strap is also handmade, featuring hand-stitched detailing. Like the bronze case, this is a watch designed to be enjoyed as it ages.
