The Turin collection is Bruno Söhnle's response to the versatile and rugged Go Anywhere, Do Anything (GADA) timepiece. Manufactured in Glashütte, where only the finest German watches are made, they combine sporty performance and elegant aesthetics. The 5-link bracelet adds refinement while a screw-down crown and case back ensure water-resistance to 100 meters. So, it is just as capable in a boardroom as it is jumping off a dock or swimming at the beach.
The brushed case with polished bezel measures 39.5mm in diameter and 11.8mm thick, with a strap-friendly lug width of 20mm. This one should fit nearly everyone, as its size is right in the “Goldilocks zone”. It features a sapphire crystal coated with anti-reflective material, as well as a display case back to admire the movement.
The TURIN AUTOMATIK is available in four colors: white with a contrasting black minute track, grey with the same black minute track, dark green with a white contrasting minute track, and, for the adventurous, lime green with a white minute track. All the watches feature the same applied markers and beveled hands, which are filled with luminous material. They also have a date display at 3 o’clock.
The BS175 (Sellita SW200-1) Swiss-Made caliber powers the TURIN AUTOMATIK. Bruno Söhnle applies hand-finished perlage to the base plate, gear train, and automatic bridges, and the components are assembled with in-house thermally blued screws. The movement also features a custom rotor made in Glashütte and has 26 jewels, hacking, hand winding, center seconds, a frequency of 28,000 beats per hour (4hz), and a power reserve of at least 38 hours.
