Members of the Manchester Series bearing the Ozzie name has always been a staple in Stuhrling’s collection; easily recognized by the curved square case and exploding numerals, it’s no wonder that its incredible design will be worked on to adhere to the growing and ever-evolving watch culture. Bigger being better, an exciting modification of the Manchester Ozzie has been implemented; an increased in size gave way to the Manchester Ozzie XL! This stunning timepiece offers the same bold personality, but with a louder, sportier flair! The square case measures in at an astonishing 47mm x 47mm as opposed to the original 42mm x 42mm case design! A key difference between the Manchester Ozzie XL and the other members of its series is the inversed guilloche soleil pattern on the dial. The center circle has been hydraulically stamped, while the rest of the dial has that beautiful matte finish to allow the numerals to stand out more.

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.

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.

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).
