About Manchester Square: Manchester Square is an 18th century garden square in the Marylebone area in London, England. The beautiful garden square was named after the Duke of Manchester and was laid out in 1776. In the twentieth century, the square became somewhat of a gathering place for true art lovers as the famous Hertford House.
Krysterna Crystals
Krysterna is proprietary to Stührling Original and refers to the crystals that are used in its timepieces. Krysterna stems from the eyewear industry and has more strength over a spread surface area than sapphire. Krysterna crystals are more scratch resistant than mineral crystals and more shatter resistant than sapphire crystals.
The Uptown Family is part of the Leisure Collection, which include timepieces that combine beautiful designs with a delicate formal style. This family includes skeleton timepieces that show off the exquisite movements and enhances your formal attire.
Summary of Features
• Movement: Manual/Self-Winding Automatic Movement
Automatic watches do not operate on batteries. Automatic watches are made up of about 130 or more parts that work together to tell time. Automatic movements mark the passage of time by a series of gear mechanisms, and are wound by the movement of your wrist as you wear it. The gear train then transmits the power to the escapement, which distributes the impulses, turning the balance wheel. The balance wheel is the time regulating organ of a mechanical watch, which vibrates on a spiral hairspring. Lengthening or shortening the balance spring makes the balance wheel go faster or slower to advance or retard the watch. The travel of the balance wheel from one extreme to the other and back again is called oscillation. Lastly, automatic movements come in different types, including movements that are Swiss-made, Japanese-made, and more.
Also referred to as self-winding, watches with automatic movements utilize kinetic energy, the swinging of your arm, to provide energy to an oscillating rotor to keep the watch ticking. They’re considered more satisfying to watch collectors (horologists) because of the engineering artistry that goes into the hundreds of parts that make up the movement. If you do not wear an automatic watch consistently (for about 8 to 12 hours a day), you can keep the watch powered with a watch winder (a great gift for collectors).

Great addition to my collection The larger size, the colored numerals, the square case, and the weight and sunburst guilloche all add up to make this watch among my favorites. It just feels so right on my wrist although I have a slim wrist; it is simple to set and we’ll see about its accuracy in the months to come. The delivery was swift, the watch packaged with elegance and style. All in all, I believe Sturling has a winner in the Manchester Ozzie Watch.
