The Watch
Here we have a 2023 Halios Seaforth IV Bahama Yellow Automatic with a 40mm stainless steel case that curves over your wrist with thick tapered flat-ended drilled lugs, a lug-to-lug length of 46mm and a case thickness of 12mm giving the watch an impressive wrist presence. Polished chamfered edges and brushed surfaces transition with crisp edges, on the right side, is a signed screw-down crown that has deep knurling for extra grip protected by crown guards. A rotating 120-click unidirectional bezel protected by a black sapphire 12-hour insert, giving it the appearance of the bakelite bezels of the past that holds a double domed vintage-style sapphire crystal AR coated above a vibrant yellow dial with a glossy lacquered finish, an outer minute track has applied baton indexes made of moulded 3D Super-LumiNova marking the hours. Baton hands are filled with Super-LumiNova and complemented by a sweeping second hand, at 12 o'clock we have the Halios motif with Seaforth printed underneath. On the reverse, a screw-down case back with the details of the watch etched, inside an automatic Sellita SW200, 26 jewels, beating at 28,800 beats per hour, this workhorse movement has hand winding and hacking seconds and quick set date for your convenience. The watch comes paired with its 20mm rubber strap and signed pin buckle, and the watch comes with its Halios presentation box, travel case and paperwork.
Personal Note
Halios has been making waves on this side of the ocean amongst collectors, especially with this Seaforth IV and specifically we have the Bahama Yellow here for sale which looks incredible, contrasted perfectly against the black of the indices, hands and bezel! As we begin to see some of that mythical British sun appear, this is going to look great on your wrist, so snap it up ready!
