The Watch
Here we have an Unworn Horage Supersede Atoll Blue Platinum Micro-Rotor with a 39.5mm brushed and polished 904L stainless steel case that curves over your wrist with distinctive angular drilled lugs, and a polished bevel edge flows around the case leading to a lug-to-lug length of 47mm and a case thickness of 10mm giving the watch an impressive wrist presence. On the right side is a signed screw-down crown with deep knurling for extra grip and protection by crown guards. The unidirectional bezel has an engraved 60-minute dive scale with the first 15 minutes polished and the remaining minutes brushed with the numerals in relief for an interesting 3D effect holding a domed sapphire crystal AR coated above an Atoll Blue matte finished dial. An outer minute track is precisely executed with applied baton indexes that taper and are infilled in SuperLumiNova marking the hours, and at 3 o’clock a framed date window, at 9 o’clock a 24-hour day/night register recessed and printed in black and white with a yellow hand, at 12 o’clock we have a Power Reserve indicator scale. Skeletonised baton hands have SuperLumiNova tips and are complemented by a yellow-tipped sweeping second hand. At 12 o’clock the HORAGE motif and at 6 o’clock “K2-GMT Chronometer Officially Certified'' complete this versatile dive tool watch. On the reverse a sapphire exhibition case back showcasing the stunning automatic K2 with an upgraded PT950 Platinum Micro-Rotor, beating at an unusual 25,200 Beats per hour, a silicon hairspring and escapement and Côtes de Genève, laser etched decoration, COSC Certified. A “true” GMT to adjust pull out to the first position and turn clockwise, to adjust the date you rotate anticlockwise. The watch comes paired with a 21.5mm fitted Horagebrushed and polished stainless steel bracelet with a signed deployment clasp and ratchet micro-adjustment, plus an additional fitted Horage rubber strap with a pin buckle, and the watch comes with its Horage presentation box and paperwork.
Personal Note
Horage has been making waves among the collecting community and I now finally have one in to sell, I am very impressed with the build quality but more impressed with the design! This GMT is wonderful and offers a design that stands out amongst the crowd, plus flipping the watch over to see that movement is mesmerising every single time, beautifully decorated to a standard well above its price tag.
The Brand
In 2009, Stephen Kussmaul, a former engineer at Eterna, spent three years developing the K1 Automatic movement from scratch. This marked the beginning of an amazing journey for Jonas Nydegger and Florian Serex, who founded HORAGE in Biel/Bienne, Switzerland in 2015. The Jonas-K1, later became the Array, was launched via Kickstarter. Another successful campaign followed with the launch of Multiply, which took advantage of the K1 movement's modularity. This allowed them to develop further improvements to the movement, such as the K-TOU tourbillon and K2 micro-rotor. The name HORAGE is a blend of the words HORA, which is Latin for "hour," and AGE, which refers to time in English.
