Overcast

Blending vintage flair with high-tech materials, the Earthen Company Summit Overcast watch will be equally at home either on the ski slopes or beneath a tailored cuff. Encased in a silky smooth black ceramic case that promises supreme scratch-resistance, the model has perfect proportions of 38mm diameter with a height of only 9.9mm, while an oversized crown ensures easy access. Circular brushing enhances both the crown and the caseback while inside, the superb Miyota 9039 automatic mechanical calibre beats at a rate of 28’800 vib/h offering a power reserve of 42 hours. Evocative of classic pilots watch styling, the model has a cleanly styled black textured dial on which the numerals, hands and minutes track offer excellent contrast, while the sporty character of the piece is underscored by a graphic depicting an Alpine skier’s descent. A superb proposition that offers the client a durable ceramic cased piece at a price point rarely seen, the Summit Overcast watch wears on a sage green sailcloth rubber strap and a khaki NATO strap.
