The sixties were all about pushing the limits--in music, fashion, architecture, space travel, and especially cars. 1966 marked the year the first American car manufacturer won the renowned 24 Hours of Le Mans, making it a major milestone of modern racing in America. At Xeric, we always live by the spirit of the ’60s by pushing boundaries in our watch designs. Inspired by an era of vintage timepieces and striking automotive design, we’re excited to bring you the latest iteration of a classic Xeric watch: the limited edition Halograph III Automatic We took our favorite parts of the Halograph and upgraded them with a retro-automotive twist. Bold colors and a sleek new case design take the Halograph in a direction it has never gone before. Built around the high quality Seiko NH36 automatic movement with a 42-hour power reserve. Without the use of batteries or updates, this mechanical marvel stays running on your wrist as you wear it. The day of the week and date are shown in a unique perforated display at the bottom of the dial. The Halograph III Automatic tells time using our signature split display, which we argue is easier to tell the time than a traditional clock. Simply read the time inside each circle at the top of the watch. The inner circle shows the hour, and the outer circle shows the minutes. And when the lights go out, the Swiss SuperLumiNova transforms the time-telling into that of a clock with a traditional hour and minute hand. Hand crafted from the best materials--a stainless steel case with precisely brushed and polished finishes, a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating, and American Horween or Italian leather racing straps. The caseback showcases your limited edition number as well as a beautiful coin-engraved depiction of the 1966 Le Mans winner--serving as a reminder to blaze new trails and always move forward. SPECIFICATIONS Movement: SEIKO NH36 Day/Date, 42 Hour Power Reserve, +/- 20 secs/day Case: 42mm Stainless Steel Crystal: Single Domed Anti-reflective Coated Sapphire Caseback: 3D Embossed Solid Stainless Steel Strap: 20mm Perforated, Racing-style Leather with Tool-Free Quick Release System Water Resistance: 5 ATM Exclusivity: Limited Edition of only 1966 pieces per color
