TECHNOS 70's / Borazon-GⅧ / Cal.2824

Introducing the 1970s Technos "Borazon".

Technos is one of the watch brands that developed within the Swiss watch industry.
It started selling wristwatches in the first half of the 20th century and became widely known in overseas markets, including Japan, after the war.

Especially in the 1960s and 70s, Technos produced many watches with practical features and unique designs that reflected the spirit of the times.
At that time, Swiss watch companies were developing not only traditional classic round watches but also models that emphasized individuality through case shapes and material textures.

This is a piece that allows you to fully enjoy the interesting design of a practical watch, typical of Technos in the 1970s.

■Dial and Case Design

The dial is a specially finished dial with a deep brown base.

The surface features unique patterns reminiscent of rock faces or wood grain, displaying a completely different look from typical monochromatic dials.
Depending on how the light hits it, a golden hue emerges within the deep brown, giving it a natural depth and warmth.

The indices are gold-colored bar indices.
Combined with the minute markers on the outer edge, the watch maintains readability despite its distinctive dial.

The hands are thick pencil hands with black lines.
They stand out clearly against the deep brown dial, and the details show a sense of unity with the indices.

The case has a unique form composed of straight lines and wide surfaces.
The entire case is formed by large surfaces that envelop the round dial, and the metallic luster and shadows are clearly visible with every change in light.

The thick cut glass also significantly contributes to the watch's impression.
Viewed from the side, the glass has a strong rise, which, combined with the three-dimensional case design, creates a presence typical of 1970s watches.

This piece features an impressive combination of a dial reminiscent of natural materials and a metallic case design.
It is a vintage watch that offers a slightly futuristic yet organically warm design, characteristic of Technos in the 70s.

■Movement

The movement is an automatic ETA Cal.2824.

The ETA 2824 is one of the 대표 calibers of Swiss-made automatic movements since the 1970s.
It offers stable practicality and an easy-to-handle design, and has been adopted by various watch brands.

Its high beat rate of 28,800 vibrations per hour, which allows the second hand to move smoothly, is also appealing.
A reliable movement suitable for daily use is housed within its unique design.

■Styling

The case size is 38.3mm vertical (including lugs) / 37.4mm horizontal (including crown) / 6.6mm thick / weight 105g (including band).

This piece is characterized by its deep brown dial and linear case design.

When paired with a shirt or jacket, it adds a touch of 70s individuality to a classic outfit, providing a nice accent to the wrist.
It pairs well with calm colors such as brown, beige, and olive, allowing you to naturally enjoy the vintage atmosphere.

On the other hand, it also goes well with casual styles featuring denim and leather shoes.
The watch itself has a strong presence, so even with simple attire, your wrist won't feel bare, adding depth to your overall look.

This piece features an attractive contrast between a dial reminiscent of natural materials and a metallic case design.
It is a vintage watch recommended for those who want to add a touch of individuality to their everyday style.

■Condition

The case is in good condition with no noticeable scratches.
There are some minor scratches on the case back due to use, but there are no problems with its functionality.
The dial maintains its original condition and visibility is good.
The movement is running well, and there are no problems with its use. 

It is fitted with an aftermarket metal bracelet.
