Mühle-Glashütte Sportivo Compass Date
Model: M1-52-22-LK
Sportivo is the name of Mühle-Glashütte’s contemporary range of sports watches comprising Compass Date, Travel GMT and Active Chronograph models, all designed to act as ideal everyday companions– albeit in the office, after hours, at business meetings, when training or out and about on city and outdoor adventures. With their excellent functionality and sophisticated sporty style, Sportivo watches are ready to go where you need.
Designed with exciting adventures in mind, the Sportivo Compass Date is the ultimate companion for the outdoors. This piece is an absolute must-have for long trekking tours thanks to its bidirectional compass bezel. With this handy function, it can be used as a compass to find the right direction to give google maps a rest – meaning an empty phone battery is no longer a sign of doom for hikers. For perfect orientation (in the southern hemisphere), wearers simply need to hold the Sportivo Compass Date horizontally and point its hour hand at the sun. The hour hand and 12 o’clock marking then form an angle, and the central line of this angle points to the north. By synchronising the south “N” marking on the compass bezel with the halfway point of the angle between the hour hand and the 12o’clock marking, wearers of this intelligent watch model can identify all directions on the bezel at a glance.
To enhance legibility, the watch has a high-quality stainless steel case with 2.2-millimetre-thick double anti-glare sapphire crystal and a scratch-resistant ceramic bezel inlay. When it comes to the strap, active watch enthusiasts can choose between a colour-coordinated leather/rubber strap or a three-link stainless steel strap, which features Mühle’s new folding clasp with integrated length adjustment. Despite its elegant design, this outdoor watch is fully equipped to cope with the elements, thanks to its 42.5 mm case diameter, screw-in crown with side protection and high watertightness of up to 30 bars (300m). Whatever the weather, the inner movement and dial remain safe and sound.
The sporty style of the watch is complemented by its modern dial design which boasts a colour-gradient from blue to dark blue and a three-dimensional surface texture. above which the striking dauphine hands move at a precise pace. With their generous coating of luminous material, the dauphine-style hands team up with high-contrast indices and hour numerals to ensure optimal readability, even when night draws in.
In short, this watch can navigate its way through tough boardroom meetings and thick forests without missing a beat.
