Built on a polar legacy
First engineered in the 1950s for daily precision timekeeping, this 38mm stainless steel watch descends from a collection issued during Operation Deep Freeze, the 1955–56 U.S. Navy expedition to Antarctica. Its proportions, its applied indices, its brushed-and-polished alternating case finish, all preserved from that era. A genuine vintage-inspired dress watch that wears equally well on a flat-link bracelet or a leather strap.
The secret complication
Flip the watch over. Begin winding. The sapphire caseback reveals a mechanical animation invisible from the front: a hand-painted penguin automaton, driven by a cam system integrated directly into the movement. The winding motion, the same action that powers the Soprod P054 hand-wound movement, simultaneously drives the animation. No battery. No electronics. Pure mechanical ingenuity, hidden on the reverse side of the watch where only the wearer ever sees it. This tradition of private, discreet complications, automata and erotic scenes concealed in watch casebacks, dates to 18th-century Swiss horology. The design reinterprets that heritage with irreverence and craft.
Specifications that matter
The 38mm 316L stainless steel case is 12.45mm thick with a 45mm lug-to-lug span, proportions that suit both smaller and larger wrists. The screw-down crown ensures water resistance to 10 ATM / 100 metres. A double-domed sapphire crystal protects the salmon sunray brushed dial. The modified Soprod P054 manual winding movement powers both timekeeping and the animation via the same winding motion.
Nine strap options
Available on a beads-of-rice stainless steel bracelet, a flat-link bracelet, black or brown racing perforated leather, smooth black or brown leather, black or brown leather with white contrast stitching, and a black rubber tropic strap. Each configuration changes the character of the watch entirely, from vintage dress to sport-ready tool watch.
Swiss made, Grenchen, Switzerland
Designed and engineered in Grenchen, the same watchmaking region that produced precision instruments for polar exploration since the mid-20th century. Backed by a 2-year international warranty with free returns and exchanges.
