The single most distinguishing factor of the Manchester Ozzie is the large oversized square case.  Milled from solid 316L surgical grade stainless steel, the case is anatomically curved and befitted with a curved Krysterna crystal and curved screw down exhibition case-back as well. In true artistic fashion, the case has become a work of art itself, with the polished convex bezel creating a beautiful step design and with decorative pins in the form of screw heads on the lugs.  The solid end-piece on the strap makes for a look of complete integration. The Uptown Family is part of the Leisure Collection, which include timepieces that combine beautiful designs with a delicate formal style. This family includes skeleton timepieces that show off the exquisite movements and enhances your formal attire. Krysterna Crystals Krysterna is proprietary to Stührling Original and refers to the crystals that are used in its timepieces. Krysterna stems from the eyewear industry and has more strength over a spread surface area than sapphire. Krysterna crystals are more scratch resistant than mineral crystals and more shatter resistant than sapphire crystals. Summary of Features • Movement: Manual/Self-Winding Automatic Movement Automatic watches do not operate on batteries. Automatic watches are made up of about 130 or more parts that work together to tell time. Automatic movements mark the passage of time by a series of gear mechanisms, and are wound by the movement of your wrist as you wear it. The gear train then transmits the power to the escapement, which distributes the impulses, turning the balance wheel. The balance wheel is the time regulating organ of a mechanical watch, which vibrates on a spiral hairspring. Lengthening or shortening the balance spring makes the balance wheel go faster or slower to advance or retard the watch. The travel of the balance wheel from one extreme to the other and back again is called oscillation. Lastly, automatic movements come in different types, including movements that are Swiss-made, Japanese-made, and more. Also referred to as self-winding, watches with automatic movements utilize kinetic energy, the swinging of your arm, to provide energy to an oscillating rotor to keep the watch ticking. They're considered more satisfying to watch collectors (horologists) because of the engineering artistry that goes into the hundreds of parts that make up the movement. If you do not wear an automatic watch consistently (for about 8 to 12 hours a day), you can keep the watch powered with a watch winder (a great gift for collectors). • Complications: Classic Three Hand Movement with Day and Date• Dial: Hydraulically Pressed Guilloche Soleil Dial• Hands: Luminous Hands• Markers: Individually Applied Arabic Numerals Topped with Luminova Diagrams of Features With dedication to the heritage of watchmaking, Stührling Original timepieces appeal to the most discriminating taste at reasonable prices.
