S.U.G. Gents Magnum Automatic Dual Time Multi-Function Leather Strap/Blue Dial
Circles upon circles reach your senses as you gaze upon this innovative timepiece from S.U.G.. Four distinct subsidiary wreaths contrast against the textured backdrop of the dial. Individually, each circlet provides a fraction of the information desired for timekeeping: the date, month, and day of the week are all presented along with a secondary time zone resting above. Below, the fourth circle opens up so you can see the gradually ticking combination flywheel and spinning balance inside. And of course the inner workings of this handsome timepiece are fashioned with a Côtes de Genève finish and an impressive leather strap to wrap around your wrist comfortably.

In 1883, a Winterthur watchmaker by the name of Gottilieb Hauser brainstormed the idea for the Swiss Watchmakers Corporation (Schweizerische-Uherenmacher-Genossenschaft) as a distributor of standardized Swiss watch components. Once the word got out, other watchmakers rushed to join this organization with the guarantee that it would boost their productivity and output. Eventually SUG, as it was later dubbed, evolved to the point that it was not only distributing parts, but creating then as well.
Some of the most recognized accomplishments in watch making occurred during the mid to late 19th century. These included the development of precision accurate escapements and the utilization of interchangeable watch parts. By the time we had reached the 1880’s, many European watch companies had integrated standardized parts into their common routine. However, demand greatly outweighed the resources and manpower that these companies had. Therefore, corporations like SUG were created to directly distribute watch parts from one company to another, saving them a great deal of time and money.
Now in the dawn of a whole new century, the initiative of our forefathers has resurfaced. Derived from the influence of the Swiss Watchmakers Corporation and watchmakers who supported it is the determination to continually advance many aspects of contemporary watch making. These ostentatious watches from SUG symbolize the eternal persistence that humanity has to test the limits of our imagination.
