OLD SMITH 90-007 Automatic Blued Steel Hands with Stainless Steel Bracelet

From KUOE

The Old Smith 90-007 is a small seconds, automatic watch.Equipped with CITIZEN MIYOTA's Japanese-made Cal. 82S5 movement, this model is inspired by antique watches of the 1930's and is designed with classic details and styling to create an vintage atmosphere. The OLD SMITH 90-007 has thermally blued elegant leaf hands. Bluing is an old technique used to make steel more corrosion resistant but has fallen out of favor in recent years due to the low cost of stainless steel. In modern times, this technique is often emulated with paint, but KUOE has decided to use true blueing for this model. This model also has "curved hands", in which the tip of the minute hand curves along the glass, which was common in watches made several decades ago. This hand design is easily readable while at the same time maintaining a sense of luxury. The diameter of the main body is a small 35mm case, which is typical of KUOE. Smaller than many modern watch designs, this 35mm case size is a good fit for most wrist sizes.
