Description
The SÖNER Nostalgia Paris is a slim rectangular dress watch: a 28 x 40 mm case in polished 800HV hardened stainless steel, 7 mm thick, with a white dial, a Swiss ETA 901.001 quartz movement with an 11-year battery, sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating and 5 ATM water resistance. Its design draws on the Art Deco era that produced the first tank watches, and it comes with a 10-year warranty.
The SÖNER Nostalgia Paris stands as a study in refined geometry. Its rectangular case, sculpted from polished hardened stainless steel, pays homage to Art Deco heritage while capturing the enduring romance of Paris. The immaculate white dial, shielded by scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective finish, brings a quiet clarity to the wrist, echoing the city's luminous skyline at dusk.
Every detail is considered. The Swiss ETA quartz movement delivers exceptional precision, supported by an 11-year battery life for lasting reliability. The arched, screw-down case back and 5 ATM water resistance reflect a commitment to durability and allow for swimming and snorkelling, while the custom logo crown marks each piece as part of a thoughtful lineage. The slender case profile, measuring 28 x 40 mm with a 7 mm thickness, sits comfortably and elegantly, whether paired with a croc-embossed leather strap or a polished steel bracelet.
This classic rectangular watch is available in a range of 20 mm strap options, from supple genuine leather in rich tones to a gleaming metal bracelet. Each strap is designed for comfort and versatility, allowing the watch to transition seamlessly from formal occasions to daily wear. The minimalist white dial, paired with polished steel indices and hands, creates a timeless impression that feels both contemporary and rooted in tradition.
With a decade-long warranty and a design philosophy shaped by Swedish innovation and Swiss craftsmanship, the Nostalgia Paris is more than a high quality rectangular watch. It is a finely crafted companion, intended to be worn, admired, and handed down. A quiet statement for those who appreciate enduring design and the subtle art of distinction.
