Atowak Ettore Lite
Retrograde watches are the interesting cousins of the conventional hour and minute handed timepieces. We say interesting because there are so many ways to display them. Microbrand atowak has done it before with their previous offerings and they are at it again with their new Ettore Lite. Let’s examine what makes it interesting.

Advanced 4-Arm Wandering Hour Structure
In pursuit of the ultimate experience, Ettore uses a cutting-edge 4-arm wandering hour time display which requires sophisticated structure design that is reserved for high-end luxury watches. Breaking down the established method of time reading, it uses 12 rotating indicators over 4 arms that work in perfect synchronicity to precisely to show the time.
Stylish, Day to Night
Ettore’s numerals, hands, along with the stylish profile curves are all illuminated with Swiss Super-LumiNova that glows in low-light conditions, delivering a feeling of driving in the darkness and highlighting your attitudes in all perspectives. Even in the dark, your style stands out above the rest!
Precision-crafted Details Inside And Out
Driven by an unyielding passion for perfection. Every refined detail of Ettore is meticulously engineered. Ettore’s movement is built upon the accurate MIYOTA 9015 that has been redesigned for the custom 4-arm time display and the case is crafted from 316L stainless steel with more than 50 fine processing steps. For the strap, we use Italian leather for comfort and luxury.
