A Clean, Mature Bronze Case Model That Ages Beautifully | STOWA
STOWA | The Story of Time
The Epitome of Low-Beat: Equipped with the Unitas Caliber. Exquisite Vintage Design.
TiCTAC, a select shop for watches, has directly imported and begun selling the "Marine Original Bronze Vintage" from the German watch brand STOWA, characterized by its vintage-like bronze case.
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.
