Here, we have a time capsule of a “Polar” dial 16570. Dating back to 2003, this watch sat quietly in a safe for over two decades before finally making it onto the wrist of its first real owner, our dear friend @solidcaseback. We can still remember the day G peeled off the stickers and wore it for the first time.

The 40 mm case wears incredibly well on the wrist. Paired with the bulletproof calibre 3185—featuring an independently adjustable hour hand and true GMT functionality—the crisp white dial and still-functional Super-LumiNova markers make this an ideal watch for our exciting day jobs or a week on the slopes.
