    4 rules to select the right watch size.

    Case diameter

    1. Our watches are generally large, even 42MM. However, due to the style of the watch you might consider a larger size than you usually wear.

    Case thickness

    2. The 45MM case watches are 12MM thic whereas 42MM case watches are 11MM thick.

    Band width

    3. The 45MM case watches have 20MM wide watch bands whereas 42MM case watches have 18MM wide watch bands.

    Band type

    4. Watches with a steel bracelet are heavier than with a leather watch band by 90 gram.

    Quartz

    A quartz movement in a watch is a type of electronic movement that uses a small piece of quartz crystal to keep time. When an electrical current passes through the crystal, it vibrates at a consistent frequency, which regulates the timekeeping mechanism in the watch. This makes the seconds hand tick once per second in a smooth and continuous motion.

    Automatic

    An automatic movement, on the other hand, is a mechanical movement that is powered by the movement of the wearer's wrist. As the wrist moves, a rotor inside the watch spins and winds the mainspring of the watch, which powers the timekeeping mechanism. The seconds hand on an automatic watch moves in a sweeping motion, making multiple small ticks per second, rather than once per second like a quartz watch.

    In addition, our automatic watches feature an open case back showing the intricacies of our mechanical movements. (edited)

    Skeleton dial

    In a case set with 152 lab-grown diamonds, the open center of the dial shows the movement working beneath the hands. Around it, the dial is now frosted, with a luminous dot at every hour.

    Open case back

    Turn the watch over and the movement is in full view, with the Paul Rich name now on its rotor. The case back is engraved with the Astro motto, Per Aspera Ad Astra: through hardship to the stars.

    Automatic movement

    Inside is the new Miyota 8N24, a Japanese automatic. The rotor swings with every move of your wrist and winds the watch, so there is no battery to change. Fully wound, it keeps running for about 42 hours after you take it off.

    The Diamond Astro Skeleton II is made to be seen moving. This is how it looks in motion.

    Frequently asked questions

    Yes. They are lab-grown diamonds, 1.20 carats in total, the same as on the first Diamond Astro Skeleton. A lab-grown diamond has the same crystal, hardness and brilliance as a mined diamond; it is grown in a lab instead of mined.
    Yes. The dial is open at the front and the case back is open too, so you see the movement from both sides.
    At the moment we do not offer any customization.
    As long as you did not remove any protective foils you may exchange your watch within 30 days from the date of delivery.
    Keep the watch away from strong magnets and hard knocks, and wipe it with a soft dry cloth. The movement sits behind the crystal and the case back. After setting the time, return the crown to its closed position.
    Yes. It is the Miyota 8N24, a new Japanese automatic movement. It winds itself from the motion of your wrist and uses no battery. Left unworn for about 42 hours it stops; wind it at the crown or put it on, then set the time.
    Yes, the clasp can be adjusted to better fit your wrist circumference. Simply move it up or down by a notch or two.
    All our watches are protected under limited warranty for 2 years from the date of purchase. If you become aware of a defect in parts or workmanship during this time, please contact us at help@paul-rich.com with photos or videos depicting the flaw.
    Four things: solid sapphire crystal in place of sapphire-coated glass, a frosted frame around the open dial, a luminous marker at every hour, and a new Japanese automatic movement, the Miyota 8N24, with the Paul Rich name on its rotor. The 152 lab-grown diamonds, the case and the strap stay as they were.
