S.U.F Myrsky MY-G Frostpine: A Tribute To Finland’s Skies And Pines
S.U.F Helsinki, the Finnish watch brand founded by acclaimed watchmaker Stepan Sarpaneva, continues to build on its reputation for durable, design-forward timepieces with a strong Nordic identity. While Stepan’s main brand, Sarpaneva, is known for expressive and artistic haute horlogerie, S.U.F Helsinki offers a more utilitarian approach—delivering watches that are robust, minimal, and unmistakably Finnish. The latest in the lineup is the Myrsky MY-G Frostpine, a limited-edition pilot’s watch inspired by Finnish aviation history and the natural landscapes of the north.
A Design Rooted in Finnish History
The Myrsky takes its name from the VL Myrsky, a fighter aircraft developed by Finland’s State Aircraft Factory during World War II. This historical inspiration is carried through the watch’s classic pilot design—clean, legible, and purpose-built.
The 42 mm case is crafted from high-grade Outokumpu stainless steel, a material sourced from Finland, underlining the brand’s commitment to local manufacturing. Fully brushed for a matte, instrument-like appearance, the case maintains a slim profile at just 10.40 mm thick, ensuring excellent wearability. It is equipped with sapphire crystals on both the front and back, offering durability and a clear view of the dial and movement.
One of the unique aspects of the Myrsky case is the option to choose between a standard right-hand crown at 3 o’clock, or a left-hand (destro) version with the crown at 9 o’clock—a nod to individual preference and design quirkiness often seen in Sarpaneva’s work.
The Frostpine Dial: Nature Meets Precision
What sets the MY-G Frostpine apart is its pine green dial, a colorway that draws inspiration from the deep forests of Finland. The dial layout is based on vintage cockpit instruments, featuring elongated 5-minute markers and luminous hour dots for high visibility. The hands are crafted from blued steel and filled with lume, enhancing readability while reflecting the cool tones of Finnish lakes.
Unlike many modern pilot watches, the Frostpine edition maintains dial purity by omitting a date window, staying true to vintage aviation instruments and ensuring a cleaner aesthetic.
Swiss Movement with a View
Powering the Myrsky MY-G Frostpine is the Swiss automatic movemen Soprod A10. Operating at 4Hz (28,800 vibrations per hour) with a 42-hour power reserve, this movement combines reliability with smooth performance.
Through the exhibition caseback, the movement reveals Geneva stripes and perlage finishing, offering a touch of refinement that complements the utilitarian exterior.
Straps and Limited Availability
The watch is delivered on a vintage-style brown leather strap, fastened by a stainless steel Sarpaneva pin buckle. Additionally, buyers will receive a Grassbay strap in Blue by Erika’s Originals, offering a more casual and contemporary option for daily wear.
Limited to just 50 pieces, the S.U.F Helsinki Myrsky MY-G Frostpine is available exclusively through the brand’s website. Priced at €2,470 (excluding VAT), this limited edition offers a rare opportunity to own a timepiece that blends Finnish heritage, rugged design, and high-quality Swiss mechanics.
Final Thoughts
With its roots in aviation history and aesthetics inspired by Finland’s natural beauty, the Myrsky MY-G Frostpine is more than just a pilot’s watch—it’s a statement of national craftsmanship and minimalist design. For collectors seeking something distinctive outside of the mainstream, this limited-edition piece from S.U.F Helsinki offers both originality and substance.
