Stuhrling Original Emperor's Grandeur Automatic Dual Time 127A.3315C2: Pocket-watch that f

The Stuhrling Original Emperor's Grandeur Automatic Dual Time is one of those few men’s watches that can actually boast of an exclusive look and make an exceptionally grand impression. It belongs to Stuhrling's Special Reserve line (it is the latest addition) and so far, has brought a lot of excitement among the watch enthusiasts with its bold, imposing, beautiful and commanding charm; an expression that's hard to forget and outlives trends. Expression here doesn’t just point to aesthetics; to say it better - it’s a collective expression.

The Stuhrling Original Emperor's Grandeur Automatic Dual Time 127A.3315C2 Men's Watch is way too different to be regarded as another automatic, self-winding watch.

It’s the traits of the Special Reserve that are delivered right at the first glance and that turn heads! The fully skeletonised display shows its inner charms, which are not quite an everyday view. The Stührling Original Anatol Automatique 127A.3315C2 Men's Watch pulls this off very well.

The built is 316L stainless steel, blanked out from solid bars. This is surgical grade stainless steel. An exhibition case-back lets you view the meticulous motions inside; of the automatic at work. The round skeleton dial offers a second opportunity to view the same, albeit the movement is slightly less visible than from the back. For, there’s a lot more going on in the dial and that requires space. These are the day/night indicator (displayed at 9:00), the dual-time counter (sub-dial at 6:00) and the central bridge with the Stuhrling name written over it.

But oh, talk about the push/pull crown! Not too many watches get their crowns at 12:00; mostly, it’s 3. This is a more refined and matured version of the bullhead design found in some of the sports watches. It’s actually a thing of luxury, as much as the alligator-embossed, genuine, French leather strap. The push-button dual-deployment clasp also bears the same stylish finish as to the design.

The Montres Stührling Original Winchester Dual Time 127A.3315C2 runs on a ST-91011 calibre automatic, mechanical movement with 22-jewels and beating at 21,600 vph. It stores charge worth 60 hours (max) and the Krysterna crystal covering it makes this handsome timepiece rugged and well protected from every aspect.

However, there’s a small problem that some might find it too thick despite its flawlessly rounded edges. But overall, this particular watch can easily be given 4.9 out of 5 points, barely missing a perfect rating due to the so-called thickness issue. Else, in form and stature, in terms of material quality and their use and overall technicality and aesthetics, the Emperor’s Grandeur just can’t be ignored. It carries an excellent combination of sports-like toughness hidden within a luxurious and prestigious look.
