WATCH TALK
The Sternglas Asthet Automatic Watch Hits Kickstarter
Hamburg's busiest watch brand goes live with its new project

We’re quite fond of Sternglas here on Fratello. The brand occupies a very different niche from our usual fare, of course, but that doesn’t mean its watches don’t deserve a place in our collection. When it comes to making very affordable, timeless dress watches, there are few brands that stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the Hamburg-based outfit in this price bracket. As such, we’re thrilled to see the brand return to Kickstarter to launch its latest model, the Sternglas Asthet.
Sternglas has a pretty wide catalog already. Within that catalog, I’ve frequently marked the Hamburg dial as my favorite. I love the crisp, highly technical layout and the super-bright lume pips at the cardinal points. I’d love to see it in a super-slim case, sans date, and with the quartz module replaced by an automatic movement.
Super Early Bird Price as part of the Kickstarter campaign will be €299. Thereafter, the regular retail price will be €399. However, the closed case back, decorated with an abstract design, will be numbered for this first edition — meaning picking one up on Kickstarter has a benefit beyond the price. That’s a nice touch to commemorate being an early adopter of this ambitious young brand. Learn more about Sternglas here.
