The case has a robust, strong design and the dial opening is wide to ensure that the time can be read easily and accurately. The bracelet, too, has a solid feel and sits securely and comfortably on the wrist.
The brilliance of a “Nova”
A nova is one of Nature’s most remarkable astronomical phenomena. Long thought to be the creation of a new star, a Nova takes the form of a sudden, bright emission of light. With its radial pattern, this dial is inspired by the arrival of a Nova in the night sky.
The case and bracelet are made of titanium which is as strong as stainless steel and yet 40% lighter. The super-hard coating ensures that the watch is scratch-resistant.
The ceramic cover on the bezel protects from scratching.
The sapphire crystal has a super-clear coating that eliminates glare and so delivers optimum visibility from any angle while the Lumibrite on the hands and indexes ensures legibility even in low light conditions.

Traveling can be stressful; Astron makes it just a little less so.
