NORTH.er
A professional instrument designed to assist an explorer’s sense of direction. With its classically-crafted finish and 5 ATM water resistance, the 41mm steel case was designed to meet the needs of outdoor activities, everyday lifestyle and formal occasions. The dial features SuperLuminova hour markers and TWC-style hands that sweep over the high-contrast matte black surface. The green hour hand pointing to the 24-hour scale can be set in a different time-zone as the 12-hour hand, allowing one to know the time in different parts of the world. If the two hands are set in the same time-zone, the watch can be positioned so that the yellow hour hand points to the sun and thus the green GMT hand points North. A timepiece built for all conditions, allowing directional and timekeeping assistance with seasonal accuracy.

The compass and timepiece share a common innovative significance, yet for ages, non-digital wrist compasses had been developed for the military without being able to tell time. These vintage wrist compasses inspired us to create the North.er. A timepiece that embraces yet another incredible utility that mechanical horology has to offer. Due to the adjustments applied to the movement, the NORTH.er is capable of assisting one’s sense of direction while also serving as a multi-time-zone instrument. The Towson Watch Company dedicates this timepiece to those bold enough to explore the natural world.
