If Britain had an official sky, this would be it. It’s the view from the office window most weeks of the year, and the topic of British small talk since records began. The dial is slate grey-blue with the depth of gunmetal, and the weekend indicator picks out every Saturday and Sunday, so there’s always a Sunday roast in the forecast. Assembled in Grey Britain, naturally.
Bring on the Weekend
Calendar watches are notorious for displaying information you don’t really need, so how about something much more important? Everyone knows the weekend is the best part of the week, so that’s what the 04SERIES prioritises. A display of chamfered windows around the outside of the dial lets you know where the weekends fall for the entire month, aligned with the exact dates. Simply quick-set the weekend display at the beginning of each month and you’ll never fall foul of a fake Friday again. To make extra sure you’re clear where the weekends are, the windows have been CNC cut instead of stamped for additionally crisp refinement.
Custom Calibre Complication
This ambitious project needed a brand new calibre, so we've partnered with Seagull once again to make it happen. But it wasn’t easy. Over the course of two years, no less than thirty-four new parts have been designed, developed, tooled and tested to bring the concept to life. And not only that, but you might also be surprised to learn that this is actually the first automatic movement we have ever used. This all makes the 04SERIES our single most complex watch by far.
A Pedantic Pointer Date
The pointer date is a classic complication that’s so much more elegant than a window. It also works in tandem with the weekend display so you know what dates they fall on. But with the 04SERIES featuring a moonphase as well, what about those awkward moments when the pointer date obscures your lunar viewing? That simply won’t do. So the 04SERIES uses a retrograde feature that jumps the pointer date back to one when it reaches the end of the month, never setting foot (or rather, hand) anywhere near the moonphase. The pointer date is very easily quick-set via a hidden pusher at 2 o’clock.
Assembled in Great Britain
Every Studio Underd0g is assembled entirely in-house, in Great Britain, by our own team. Not passed down a line, but built start to finish by a single pair of hands. Whosever hands they are, their initials go on the paperwork that comes with it. Built by one of us, and worn, we rather hope, by one of you.
