Serica 4512 Owner Review : Completed, functional and attractive

Instant love at first sight for the not so common California dial of this young and beautiful French brand, which is reminiscent of distant memories of Rolex Bubble Back… for the rest, muscular specs in a tasteful military case, with ideal and refined proportions. 37.7mm x 11.3mm. Far from the competition often cruder and less singular in terms of design in this price range. Swiss quality at the rendezvous with a special mention for the black enamel dial and the brushed grosgrain of the bezel. I changed the original bonclip bracelet for a pretty black pigskin bracelet which responds well to the depth of the dial, accentuated by the double domed sapphire crystal. The manual winding of the Soprod P24 movement adds an additional charm to the whole. A success.
