Yema Skin Diver Slim Returns In Bronze With The CMM.20 Movement

MRSTATELESS NEW RELEASES, YEMA 2026, Bronze, Diver, Limited Edition, Micro-Rotor 0

Yema expands its Skin Diver Slim collection with the Skin Diver Slim Bronze CMM.20, a model that introduces a bronze case to the series while preserving the compact proportions and technical characteristics that define the Slim line. Following earlier stainless steel editions, this release is available in both limited and non-limited configurations.

Case and Bezel

The watch is built around a 39 mm bronze case with brushed surfaces and polished bevels. Thanks to the ultra-thin construction enabled by the In-house movement, total case thickness is kept to just 10 mm, while the lug-to-lug measurement reaches 47 mm, ensuring a balanced and wearable profile. The use of bronze adds a warm visual tone and allows the case to develop a natural patina over time.

Water resistance is rated at 300 metres, making the Skin Diver Slim Bronze suitable for professional diving use. A screw-down crown is positioned at 3 o’clock, and the watch is completed with a sapphire exhibition caseback, offering a view of the movement inside.

Framing the dial is a unidirectional sapphire bezel with a 0–60 dive scale. The bezel insert is finished in a faded “ghost” tone, referencing the appearance of aged bezels found on vintage dive watches. A luminescent marker at 12 o’clock ensures orientation in low-light or underwater conditions.

Dial and Legibility

The enamel dark grey dial features a glossy finish and follows the classic Skin Diver layout. Large triangular hour markers dominate the display, while Arabic numerals appear at 3-6-9-12 positions. All markers are outlined in bronze-coloured detailing and filled with Super-LumiNova in a light green tone, enhancing legibility while reinforcing the watch’s retro-inspired aesthetic.

Time is indicated by a pencil-style hour hand, a broad arrow minute hand, and a lollipop seconds hand. This combination prioritises clarity, particularly for the minute hand, which is critical for dive timing.

Movement: Calibre Manufacture Morteau 20 (CMM.20)

Powering the Skin Diver Slim Bronze CMM.20 is Yema’s Calibre Manufacture Morteau 20, a proprietary automatic movement developed in France in collaboration with Swiss watchmaker Olivier Mory. The calibre measures just 3.70 mm in thickness and uses a bi-directional tungsten micro-rotor, allowing the watch to maintain its slim profile. It delivers a power reserve of approximately 70 hours, operates at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour, and is regulated to a chronometer-level accuracy of –3 to +7 seconds per day.

Strap, Availability, and Price

The watch is supplied on a black FKM Viton rubber strap, secured by a bronze pin buckle designed to age consistently with the case. This version of the Skin Diver Slim Bronze CMM.20 is produced as a limited edition of 200 pieces and is priced at € 2,249.

Alongside this model, Yema also offers a non-limited green-dial version of the Skin Diver Slim Bronze CMM.20. This alternative features white bezel numerals and white luminous material on the dial, while retaining the same case dimensions, movement specifications, strap material, and pricing.

IWC Introduces The Portugieser Automatic 42 Year Of The Horse

MRSTATELESS IWC, NEW RELEASES 2026, Fire Horse, Limited Edition, Lunar Year, Power Reserve, Small Seconds 0

IWC Schaffhausen introduces the Portugieser Automatic 42 Year of the Horse, a limited edition created to celebrate the start of the Year of the Horse on February 17, 2026. The model continues the brand’s established tradition of marking the Lunar New Year with special editions within the Portugieser collection.

The watch is housed in a 42.40 mm stainless steel case, preserving the elegant proportions and clean lines characteristic of the Portugieser design. It features a burgundy dial, a color closely associated with Lunar New Year celebrations and traditional symbolism. The dial layout follows the collection’s hallmark balance and clarity.

Gold-toned leaf-shaped hands, applied Arabic numerals, and matching indices stand out against the burgundy background. The display includes a small seconds subdial at 9 o’clock, a power reserve indicator at 3 o’clock with a galloping horse, and a date window at 6 o’clock, integrated discreetly to maintain visual symmetry.

Powering the timepiece is the IWC-manufactured Caliber 52011, an automatic movement designed for long autonomy and reliability. It features IWC’s Pellaton winding system, enhanced with ceramic components to improve efficiency and reduce wear. The movement stores energy in two barrels, delivering a substantial 7-day (168-hour) power reserve.

The movement can be admired through the sapphire crystal case back, revealing a distinctive detail exclusive to this edition: a gold-plated rotor shaped as a galloping horse, created specifically to reference the Lunar New Year theme.

A Closer Look At The TAG Heuer Carrera Australian Limited Edition

MRSTATELESS NEW RELEASES, TAG HEUER 2026, Australia, Chronograph, Limited Edition 0

TAG Heuer has unveiled a Carrera Chronograph created specifically for the Australian market, developed in close collaboration with a group of local collectors. The result is the TAG Heuer Carrera Australian Limited Edition, a restrained yet historically informed chronograph that blends vintage Heuer design codes with the brand’s modern Carrera platform.

Produced in a limited run of just 75 pieces, this edition forms part of TAG Heuer’s broader 60th anniversary celebrations of the Carrera collection, while also highlighting the growing role of collector communities in shaping contemporary limited editions.

A Design Rooted in Heuer’s Chronograph Heritage

The Australian Limited Edition draws direct inspiration from two important vintage references: the Heuer Autavia 1163 and the Heuer Carrera 1158CHN, often referred to as the “Success Watch.” Rather than recreating a single historical model, the watch selectively incorporates visual elements from both.

From the Autavia 1163, the new Carrera adopts high-contrast black chronograph sub-registers, blue chronograph and subdial hands, and a date window positioned at six o’clock to preserve dial symmetry. The influence of the gold Carrera 1158CHN is more understated and can be seen in the dial’s finishing and overall tonal balance rather than in the choice of case material.

Dial, Case, and Wearability

The watch is housed in a 39 mm stainless steel case, a size that closely reflects the proportions of vintage Carrera chronographs. It features TAG Heuer’s contemporary glassbox-style sapphire crystal, which rises smoothly above the bezel and improves legibility from multiple angles.

The silver dial is finished with a vertical brushed pattern inspired by Côtes de Genève, adding depth and texture while maintaining a clean layout. Two black azurage chronograph counters are positioned at three and nine o’clock, reinforcing the classic bi-compax configuration. Blue lacquered hands introduce a subtle color accent that remains faithful to historic Heuer design cues.

The watch is delivered on a black perforated calfskin strap, commonly associated with classic motorsport chronographs, and secured by a folding clasp.

Movement and Technical Specifications

Powering the Carrera Australian Limited Edition is TAG Heuer’s in-house Calibre TH20-00, which is visible through the sapphire caseback. This automatic chronograph movement features a column-wheel architecture and bidirectional winding, and it delivers an 80-hour power reserve. For added reassurance, the movement is covered by TAG Heuer’s five-year manufacturer warranty.

The open caseback is printed with the words “Australian Limited Edition,” along with the individual limitation number, marked XX/75 around the outer edge.

A Contemporary Carrera with a Regional Identity

Rather than relying on dramatic design changes, the TAG Heuer Carrera Australian Limited Edition focuses on proportion, finishing, and historical continuity. It demonstrates how the modern Carrera platform can serve as a refined base for collector-led projects while remaining aligned with the collection’s original design philosophy.

Produced in limited numbers and reserved for a single market, this edition stands as a carefully considered interpretation of the Carrera chronograph, combining vintage Heuer references, modern mechanics, and a distinct regional identity.

Credor Expands The Goldfeather Collection With The GCBY991 Porcelain Dial

MRSTATELESS CREDOR, NEW RELEASES 2026, Dress Watch, Limited Edition, Porcelain 0

Credor continues to showcase its mastery of ultra-thin watchmaking and traditional Japanese craftsmanship with the Goldfeather GCBY991, a refined dress watch distinguished by an Imari Nabeshima porcelain dial and an unusually restrained stainless steel case.

The Goldfeather name traces its origins back to 1960, when Seiko introduced a series of exceptionally thin mechanical watches driven by pioneering in-house movements. These early calibres set benchmarks for slimness in their era and later became integral to Credor’s identity when the brand was formally established in 1974. Reintroduced as a modern collection in 2023, the Goldfeather line now serves as a platform for artisanal dials produced using traditional Japanese techniques.

Imari Nabeshima Porcelain Dial

At the centre of the GCBY991 is a handcrafted porcelain dial produced at the Hataman Touen kiln, a workshop renowned for preserving the Imari Nabeshima tradition. This porcelain style originated in Okawachiyama during Japan’s Edo period and was historically reserved for the ruling elite. Today, it remains one of the country’s officially protected artistic crafts.

The dial is formed from a translucent white porcelain base that is carefully shaped, fired, and polished down to approximately 1mm in thickness. A rich cobalt-blue glaze creates a soft gradient that transitions from a lighter tone at the centre to deeper saturation around the edges. Before glazing, blue feather motifs are applied to the surface, while a secondary set of ghost-like, semi-transparent feathers and the hour markers are added after glazing. This layered process, which involves multiple firings, results in notable visual depth despite the dial’s extreme thinness.

The gently curved surface of the porcelain is protected by a box-shaped sapphire crystal. Matching this curvature, the minute hand features a subtly bent tip to follow the dial’s contour, ensuring precise legibility along the outer track.

Case and Proportions

Unlike many previous Goldfeather models crafted in precious metals, the GCBY991 is housed in stainless steel. The case measures 37.10 mm in diameter and just 8.30 mm in thickness, reinforcing its role as a traditional dress watch. The bezel and elongated lugs are finished using Zaratsu polishing, producing distortion-free surfaces with sharp transitions. Water resistance is rated at 30 metres.

Ultra-Thin Mechanical Movement

Powering the watch is the manually wound Credor calibre 6890, an ultra-thin movement measuring only 1.98mm in height. Operating at 21,600 vibrations per hour, it offers a power reserve of approximately 37 hours. The movement is visible through the sapphire caseback, where its curved bridges are decorated with broad striping and chamfered edges. The caseback is also engraved with the Hataman Touen kiln emblem, referencing the dial’s origin.

Strap and Availability

The watch is delivered on a black crocodile leather strap, secured by a stainless steel triple-folding clasp with push-button release. Production is limited to 60 pieces. The Credor Goldfeather Imari Nabeshima Porcelain Dial GCBY991 is scheduled for release in February 2026, with a retail price set at € 15,000.

Hublot And Yohji Yamamoto Return With The Classic Fusion All Black Camo

MRSTATELESS HUBLOT, NEW RELEASES 2026, Ceramic, Integrated Bracelet, Limited Edition, Yohji Yamamoto 0

Hublot expands its exploration of monochrome watchmaking with the Classic Fusion Yohji Yamamoto All Black Camo, a limited edition that develops the brand’s long-running “All Black” concept through texture rather than contrast. This model marks the fourth collaboration between Hublot and Japanese fashion designer Yohji Yamamoto and introduces a black-on-black camouflage motif for the first time within their partnership.

Case and Construction

The watch is housed in a 42 mm black ceramic case, a material selected for its combination of light weight, scratch resistance, and matte visual presence. The Classic Fusion case retains its slim and streamlined profile, with alternating polished and satin-finished surfaces creating subtle definition despite the uniform black color.

An integrated hybrid strap completes the case, featuring a rubber lining for comfort and flexibility paired with a woven black fabric exterior. The strap is secured by a folding clasp constructed from black ceramic and titanium, ensuring durability while maintaining a cohesive aesthetic.

Dial and Display

The most distinctive feature of the watch is its dial, which incorporates a camouflage pattern executed entirely in black. The motif is created using two different shades of black arranged in a raised, textured surface. Rather than relying on color contrast, the dial’s appearance shifts depending on lighting conditions and viewing angles, giving the camouflage pattern depth and visual movement.

Applied hour markers and hands are finished in black and intentionally omit luminescent material, reinforcing the All Black philosophy. The date display at 3 o’clock uses a black date disc with dark grey numerals, keeping the complication discreet and integrated into the overall design. Dial text is kept to a minimum, with the Hublot logo positioned at 12 o’clock, Yohji Yamamoto’s signature placed above 6 o’clock, and “Swiss Made” printed below it. All text elements appear in a muted grey-black tone to preserve the monochromatic theme.

Movement

On the reverse side, the watch features a smoked sapphire crystal caseback that partially reveals the movement while continuing the stealth aesthetic. Powering the watch is the Hublot Calibre HUB1110, an automatic movement based on the Sellita SW300 architecture. The movement offers automatic winding, a central seconds hand, a date function, and an approximate power reserve of 42 hours.

Limited Edition and Presentation

The Classic Fusion Yohji Yamamoto All Black Camo is produced as a limited edition of 300 pieces. Each example is delivered in a dedicated black presentation box, designed with an oversized bezel motif and featuring Yohji Yamamoto’s signature as a finishing detail.

Price and Availability

The watch is priced at € 12,000 and is available through Hublot boutiques worldwide, with online availability depending on region. It offers a distinctive interpretation of the All Black concept, combining ceramic construction, minimalist case design, and a camo dial that relies on texture rather than color to define its character.

TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph Year Of The Fire Horse

MRSTATELESS NEW RELEASES, TAG HEUER 2026, Chronograph, Fire Horse, Limited Edition, Sport Watch 0

As the Chinese Lunar New Year approaches, the watch industry once again turns its attention to the zodiac, with numerous brands unveiling special editions tied to the occasion. This seasonal moment has become a familiar fixture on the calendar, showcasing everything from calendar complications to highly symbolic designs. Following the first releases of the year, TAG Heuer now joins the celebrations in its own signature territory, presenting a chronograph dedicated to the Year of the Fire Horse, which begins on 17 February 2026. The horse, the seventh sign of the Chinese zodiac, is referenced through a combination of symbolic colours and subtle dial details, applied to the modern Carrera Glassbox platform.

Carrera Glassbox case and construction

The watch is based on the 39 mm Carrera Glassbox Chronograph, a design introduced in 2023 to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the Carrera collection. The defining element of the Glassbox family is its curved sapphire crystal, which extends seamlessly to the edge of the case and is treated with double anti-reflective coating to ensure clear legibility without optical distortion. The stainless steel case features polished and brushed surfaces, elongated lugs, and classic pump-style chronograph pushers. Water resistance is rated to 100 metres.

This edition follows the layout inspired by the historical Carrera Dato 45 reference from 1968, featuring a single 30-minute chronograph counter at 3 o’clock and a date display positioned at 9 o’clock.

Dial design and zodiac details

The dial is finished in a champagne-gold tone and framed by an internal tachymeter scale. This scale slopes downward toward a precision seconds track, marked in black with red accents. Applied rose gold-plated hour markers are fitted with small luminous dots at their tips to aid visibility in low-light conditions.

At 3 o’clock, the 30-minute chronograph counter stands out in a vivid red finish, complemented by a subtle gradient and circular graining, along with gold-coloured numerals. The date window at 9 o’clock is outlined in gold and filled with a red background. As a specific nod to the Year of the Horse, the numeral “7” on the date wheel is replaced by the Chinese character representing the horse.

The central hour and minute hands are gold-plated and filled with a thin strip of luminescent material, while the central chronograph seconds hand is rendered in bright red to match the overall colour theme.

Bracelet and movement

The watch is delivered on a stainless steel seven-row beads-of-rice bracelet developed for the Carrera Glassbox line. This bracelet design references historical bracelets produced by Gay Frères in the mid-20th century and combines visual refinement with ergonomic comfort.

Turning the watch over reveals a sapphire crystal caseback engraved with a galloping horse motif. Beneath it lies the automatic calibre TH20-07, a modern column-wheel chronograph movement. It operates at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour and is equipped with a bidirectional shield-shaped rotor. The movement offers an extended power reserve of approximately 80 hours.

Limited edition and price

The TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph Year of the Fire Horse is produced as a limited edition of 250 pieces. The retail price is set at € 8,100.

Oris Interprets the Year Of The Fire Horse With A Business Calendar Watch

MRSTATELESS NEW RELEASES, ORIS 2026, Business Calendar, Fire Horse, Limited Edition, Power Reserve 0

The Chinese New Year begins on 17 February 2026 with the Year of the Fire Horse, a zodiac sign traditionally associated with strength, momentum and confidence. To mark the occasion, Oris introduces a limited-edition timepiece built around one of its most technically ambitious movements, combining symbolic colours with a complex calendar display.

Case Design and Dimensions

The watch is housed in a 43 mm stainless steel case measuring 13.10 mm in thickness, with a lug-to-lug length of 50.50 mm. Its proportions are designed to accommodate the multi-layered business calendar display and the large in-house movement. A domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating protects the dial, while water resistance is rated at 50 metres. All calendar functions are adjusted via the crown, with no additional correctors integrated into the caseband.

Dial, Colours and Finishing

The dial is finished in a deep red tone and paired with gold-coloured details. These colours are traditionally associated with prosperity and good fortune in Chinese culture. Applied hour markers and Arabic numerals at 12 and 6 are gold-plated, as are the central hour and minute hands, which feature slender, pointed tips for a refined appearance.

Business Calendar Layout

A full business calendar is displayed across the dial. A 52-week scale runs along the outer edge and is indicated by a centrally mounted pointer hand with a gold finish and a pink tip. The months are printed in full and positioned between the applied hour markers, creating a clear and legible separation between weekly and monthly indications.

Sub-Dials and Calendar Displays

Two recessed sub-dials are positioned at 9 and 3 o’clock, each with a gradient finish transitioning from a lighter centre to a darker, wine-coloured perimeter. The left sub-dial combines the small seconds with an oversized date display, while the right sub-dial houses the power reserve indicator. Between the two sub-dials, a rectangular aperture displays the day of the week.

Power Reserve Indicator

The power reserve display departs from a traditional scale by using two stylised pink horses to indicate the remaining energy in the mainspring. A galloping horse represents a fully wound state, corresponding to the movement’s maximum 10-day power reserve, while a resting horse indicates that the watch requires winding. This patented system is driven by a worm-gear mechanism developed by Oris, allowing for a gradual and controlled countdown.

The Oris Calibre 113

Powering the watch is the hand-wound Oris Calibre 113, first introduced in 2017, the movement builds upon the architecture developed for Oris’s 110th anniversary in 2014.

Visible through the sapphire caseback, it operates at a frequency of 21,600 vibrations per hour. Two large brushed bridges dominate the layout, with an open section revealing the oversized barrel and the balance wheel. The large barrel plays a key role in delivering the 10-day power reserve that defines this calibre.

Limited Edition, Strap and Price

The Oris Year of the Fire Horse is limited to 88 individually numbered pieces, referencing the cultural significance of the number eight as a symbol of good fortune. The watch is paired with a dark brown Shell Cordovan horsehide leather strap and secured with a stainless steel folding clasp. It is presented in a wooden box and retails for € 6,650.

Seiko Celebrates 145 Years With A Four-Watch Limited Edition Collection

MRSTATELESS NEW RELEASES, SEIKO 2026, Chronograph, Limited Edition, Solar Powered, Titanium 0

In 2026, Seiko marks 145 years since Kintaro Hattori founded the company in Tokyo in 1881. Over the course of its history, Seiko has introduced numerous technical and design milestones, spanning traditional mechanical watchmaking, professional sports watches, and advanced electronic timekeeping. To commemorate this anniversary, the brand has unveiled a limited-edition collection comprising four models from its core lines: King Seiko, Prospex, Astron, and Presage.

A shared design theme runs across the collection, inspired by the engraved decorative patterns found on Seiko’s early pocket watches. Gold-coloured accents appear on each model, applied to dials, hands, indices, and case details, while every watch retains the defining characteristics of its respective family.

King Seiko KS1969 145th Anniversary Limited Edition SJE121

The King Seiko SJE121 interprets the anniversary theme through the sharp, architectural case design of the modern KS1969 series. Its dial features a grey gradient finish that becomes darker toward the edges, combined with a finely engraved texture inspired by historic decorative motifs used on early Seiko timepieces.

Gold-toned hands and applied indices contrast against the textured surface, while the overall layout remains clean and restrained. The stainless steel case measures 39.40 mm in diameter and showcases a combination of brushed surfaces and Zaratsu-style mirror-polished facets, emphasizing the crisp geometry of the case. A box-shaped sapphire crystal reinforces the vintage-inspired profile.

Inside, the watch is powered by the automatic Calibre 6L35. This high-grade movement operates at 28,800 vibrations per hour and offers a power reserve of approximately 45 hours. Its slim architecture allows the case to maintain refined proportions. The watch is paired with a multi-link stainless steel bracelet designed for comfort and flexibility.

King Seiko KS1969 145th Anniversary LE, SJE121. Grey dial, stainless steel case, 39.40 mm diameter, 9.90 mm thickness, sapphire crystal, 50 meters water resistance. Stainless steel bracelet with a folding clasp. Calibre 6L35, automatic movement, hour, minutes, seconds, date, 28,800 Vph, 26 jewels, 45 hours of power reserve. Price: € 3,200 limited to 800 pieces.

Prospex Speedtimer Mechanical Chronograph 145th Anniversary SRQ059

The Prospex Speedtimer SRQ059 highlights Seiko’s long-standing chronograph expertise, which began in 1964 with Japan’s first wrist chronograph and evolved into the automatic Speedtimer of 1969.

This anniversary edition features a white dial decorated with a fine engraved pattern inspired by early Seiko pocket watches. Gold-coloured hands, applied indices, and a matching Seiko logo introduce warmth while preserving strong legibility. The overall layout remains faithful to the Speedtimer’s functional, tool-oriented design.

The stainless steel case measures 42 mm in diameter and houses Seiko’s in-house automatic Calibre 8R48. This chronograph movement uses a column wheel and vertical clutch for precise and smooth operation, while MEMS-manufactured components contribute to consistent performance and durability. The watch maintains the robust construction expected of the Prospex line.

Seiko Prospex Speedtimer Mechanical Chronograph 145th Anniversary LE, SRQ059. White dial, stainless steel case with a super-hard coating, 42 mm diameter, 14.60 mm thickness, sapphire crystal, 100 meters water resistance. Stainless steel bracelet with a folding clasp. Calibre 8R48, automatic movement, hour, minutes, small seconds, date, chronograph, 28,800 Vph, 34 jewels, 45 hours of power reserve. Price: € 2,700 limited to 700 pieces.

Astron GPS Solar Dual-Time Chronograph 145th Anniversary SSH186

The Astron SSH186 represents Seiko’s leadership in high-precision electronic watchmaking and traces its lineage back to the 1969 Quartz Astron. This anniversary edition applies commemorative design details to the Astron GPS Solar Dual-Time Chronograph platform.

The case and bracelet are crafted from titanium and finished with a black super-hard coating to enhance scratch resistance and reduce weight. Gold-coloured accents appear on the hands, indices, bezel markings, and dial details, creating contrast against the dark case. The sapphire crystal bezel insert features gold UTC numerals positioned at 1, 4, and 5, subtly referencing the 145th anniversary.

Powering the watch is the Calibre 5X83 GPS Solar movement, which automatically adjusts to the local time zone anywhere in the world by connecting to the GPS network. The movement also offers dual-time functionality, a chronograph, and solar charging, eliminating the need for regular battery replacement.

Seiko Astron GPS Solar Dual-Time Chronograph 145th Anniversary LE, SSH186. Black dial, titanium case with a black super-hard coating, 44.10 mm diameter, 14.40 mm thickness, sapphire crystal, 100 meters water resistance. Titanium bracelet with a black super-hard coating and a folding clasp. Calibre 5X83, quartz solar-powered movement, hour, minutes, small seconds, perpetual calendar, chronograph, dual-time. Price: € 3,400 limited to 1,450 pieces.

Presage Craftsmanship Series Enamel Dial 145th Anniversary SPB538

The Presage SPB538 reflects Seiko’s early watchmaking heritage through traditional materials, compact dimensions, and artisanal dial production. Its design draws inspiration from the 1895 Timekeeper pocket watch and the 1913 Laurel, Japan’s first wristwatch.

The white enamel dial is crafted by Mitsuru Yokosawa and his team using traditional firing techniques, resulting in a smooth surface with depth and warmth. Black Roman numerals provide high contrast, while gold-coloured leaf-shaped hands and an applied gold Seiko logo align with the anniversary theme. For the first time in this design line, the seconds are displayed centrally rather than on a sub-dial.

The gold-coloured stainless steel case measures 35 mm in diameter and 12.3mm in thickness. Movable lugs and an onion-shaped crown reference early wristwatch construction derived from pocket watches. A box-shaped sapphire crystal protects the dial while preserving a vintage profile.

The watch is powered by the automatic Calibre 6R51, operating at 21,600 vibrations per hour with a 72-hour power reserve. It is paired with a brown leather strap sourced from Leather Working Group-certified tanneries.

Venezianico Nereide GMT Xi’an: A Limited Edition Inspired By The Silk Road

MRSTATELESS NEW RELEASES, VENEZIANICO 2026, GMT, Limited Edition 0

Venezianico brings a new Nereide GMT to the collection, the Xi’an Limited Edition, a model inspired by the historic Silk Road and the long-standing cultural exchange between Europe and East Asia. The watch draws a symbolic connection between Venice—one of the western gateways of the Silk Road—and Xi’an, widely regarded as the eastern starting point of the ancient trade route.

The dial immediately sets this edition apart. Finished in red, a color traditionally associated with prosperity and celebration in Chinese culture, it is constructed from a hand-assembled mother-of-pearl mosaic. The pattern recalls stylized cloud motifs commonly found in traditional Chinese art. Despite its decorative execution, legibility remains a priority, with large applied hour markers, gold-toned hands, and generous Super-LumiNova ensuring visibility in low-light conditions. A date window is positioned discreetly on the dial.

Surrounding the dial is a rotating bezel fitted with a 24-hour scale rendered in Chinese numerals, combined with a day-night indicator. Used in conjunction with the centrally mounted GMT hand, the bezel allows the wearer to track an additional time zone, reinforcing the watch’s travel-oriented functionality and its thematic link to long-distance journeys.

The stainless steel case measures 39 mm in diameter, with a thickness of 11.90 mm and a lug-to-lug distance of 45.50 mm, giving the watch compact and wearable proportions. The case features a predominantly brushed finish, contributing to a restrained and utilitarian aesthetic. At 3 o’clock, a fluid-shaped crown is protected by integrated crown guards. Water resistance is rated at 100 meters, suitable for everyday wear and light aquatic activities.

Powering the Nereide GMT Xi’an Limited Edition is the Miyota 9075 automatic movement, a true GMT caliber that allows independent adjustment of the local hour hand. The movement provides a power reserve of approximately 42 hours.

The solid caseback is engraved with an image of the Terracotta Army, one of Xi’an’s most significant historical landmarks, further reinforcing the cultural inspiration behind the model.

The Venezianico Nereide GMT Xi’an Limited Edition is produced in a limited run of 500 pieces and is priced at € 950. It brings together Italian design, Chinese cultural references, and Japanese mechanical engineering in a compact GMT sports watch.
