[Tutima] The allure of Patria Admiral Blue 43mm

"Patria 43mm" is a dress watch that Tutima made with all their heart. With the recent trend of small watches, some people may be concerned about the size of the 43mm watch, but it feels great on the wrist and has a beauty that makes you forget its size. When you wear it, the carefully mirror-finished case and high-quality blue enamel dial give it an elegance that you wouldn't expect from a stainless steel watch, and it exudes an indescribable beauty that you can't understand unless you see it in person.

Blue enamel that you can't help but stare at

It's wonderful precisely because it's "43mm". This Tutima dress watch captures the beauty of the in-house Caliber 617 in a thickness of just "11.2mm". The blue enamel makes you want to look at the watch half-peeking out from under your suit again and again. It's a masterpiece that reminds you of the finest dress shoes. The reason why it's wonderful precisely because it's "43mm" is that it's a Tutima masterpiece that combines practicality and beauty.
The bottom of the dial features the small seconds display. It has a single hand, also made in-house in steel, that crosses the snail-patterned surface. The small seconds display is outlined with a crisp white line. Looking at the dial of the Tutima Patria Admiral Blue, there is a sense of restraint all around. Nothing is bold or eye-catching, everything is understated. The thin, tapered indexes are faceted and sparkle in the faintest of light.

Button Label

Cal.617

The three screwed gold chatons follow watchmaking etiquette. The shining screws are in polished sinks. The transmission and ratchet wheels are decorated with a Glashütte sunburst finish. The teeth of the ratchet wheel and the interlocking clicks are exquisitely crafted. The piece has a mirror polish (sometimes called "black polish" or "specular polish"). The beauty of this type of finish is that its appearance changes depending on its position relative to the light, making the surface appear white, grey or black. This is the most difficult polishing method, usually done with tinplate and diamond paste. The part is run over this surface for long periods of time to achieve a perfectly flat and scratch-free surface.
