Ref. 1174-1 Parade

Serica's Ref. 1174-1 Parade is a 37.7 mm field watch in a solid brass case that will patina with wear — the same rich, warm oxidation an old lighter or a well-carried key develops over years. Inside is a Soprod C125 automatic; the dial is matte black with cream-colored Super-LumiNova markers. The Parisian brand designs every piece around the idea that a watch should age with you. The case back is engraved with Serica's compass mark; the strap is a French-tanned suede. It's the watch for the person who's had enough polished stainless in their life and is ready for a piece that starts telling a story on day one.
