This is not a classic skeleton; the dial's transparency changes with the viewing angle and incident light, making the movement stand out at times and almost disappear at others.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe dial itself is created in approximately \u003cstrong\u003etwenty manufacturing steps\u003c\/strong\u003e. A layer of metal salts is applied to the sapphire base in a plasma furnace, creating the characteristic smoky effect. The indices, logo, large date frame, and power reserve scale are then created using \u003cstrong\u003eLIGA technology\u003c\/strong\u003e, which gives them a distinctive three-dimensional depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA slightly different big date\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the distinguishing features of the 273° model is the \u003cstrong\u003elarge date at the unconventional 11 o'clock position\u003c\/strong\u003e, which visually balances the power reserve indicator. At six o'clock, there is a small seconds hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe unusual placement of the date is due to Zeitwinkel's own patented solution. The date offers quick correction, and its mechanism is a semi-integrated part of the caliber.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is an asymmetrical dial that is unmistakable at first glance but still appears balanced and very clean.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA true manufacture movement\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe heart of the watch is the \u003cstrong\u003eZW0103 – Zeitwinkel's own automatic caliber\u003c\/strong\u003e, not a modified mass-produced movement from an external supplier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt consists of \u003cstrong\u003e387 components and 49 jewels\u003c\/strong\u003e, operates at a frequency of 4 Hz, and, thanks to two mainspring barrels, offers a power reserve of over \u003cstrong\u003e72 hours\u003c\/strong\u003e. The automatic winding is bi-directional, and the movement is regulated in five positions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe bridges and main plate are made of \u003cstrong\u003eunplated German silver\u003c\/strong\u003e. Individual components are then hand-finished and decorated using traditional watchmaking techniques. We find anglage, black polishing, Geneva stripes, and perlage – including parts that will never be seen once the movement is assembled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCase built around the movement\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe steel case has a diameter of \u003cstrong\u003e42.5 mm\u003c\/strong\u003e and a thickness of 13.8 mm. Its dimensions were not created according to fashion trends; the construction was designed around the ZW0103 caliber itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe case consists of \u003cstrong\u003e26 components, and its completion requires more than 80 working steps\u003c\/strong\u003e, largely performed by hand. The combination of polished and textured surfaces highlights its architecture, while the significantly curved lugs help the watch sit naturally on the wrist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy would you want a Zeitwinkel 273° Saphir Fumé?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBecause it combines \u003cstrong\u003etruly in-house mechanics with a design that can showcase it without resorting to a classic skeleton\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe smoked sapphire dial, patented large date, over 72-hour power reserve, and beautifully finished German silver caliber create a watch where practically every detail has a technical or horological reason.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Zeitwinkel 273° Saphir Fumé doesn't need to convince with a famous name on the dial.

Instead of a famous logo, massive marketing, and large production numbers, it focuses primarily on in-house mechanics and traditional watchmaking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe foundation of Zeitwinkel watches are \u003cstrong\u003etheir own manufacture calibers\u003c\/strong\u003e, developed with an emphasis on robustness, precision, longevity, and serviceability. The brand combines modern precision manufacturing of individual components with their traditional hand-finishing and assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is watches intended primarily for those who seek independent Swiss watchmaking and are more interested in \u003cstrong\u003ehow and from what the watch was truly created\u003c\/strong\u003e than in the name on the dial.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Zeitwinkel","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":59107399270748,"sku":"MPS-WATCH-Zeitwinkel-273-Saphir-Fume","price":676390.0,"currency_code":"CZK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1008\/5479\/2540\/files\/zeitwinkel-273-saphir-fume_jpg.webp?v=1789314124","url":"https:\/\/www.infinitywatches.cz\/en\/products\/zeitwinkel-273-saphir-fume","provider":"INFINITY Watches","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
