This watch has a 40mm face. It’s made of black IP stainless steel attached to a black leather band. It’s unisex. It’s horologically “murdered out.” It looks really good. And yet, all of that is less important than the inside out way it tells time. Normally you look to the outer parts of the face for the numerals and the hands to figure out what time it is. On the Nadir, they’re all centered on the face. You always look at the same exact spot on the watch to tell the time. This could be extremely convenient, or confusing, but the jury is still out on that. All we know is that it’s completely different, and different is good.
