24-Hour Automatic Watch
Authentic Diver Style Rubber Strap
24-hour watches have a history dating back to the 1300s when town clocks had 2 12-hour dials that over time merged into a single dial. These 24-hour tool watches were used by many professionals for their convenience including pilots, military personnel, and travelers that went through many different time zones. Inspired by traditional 24-hour clocks, the Wancher is Astronaut was designed. Functionally suitable 24-hour watch for pilots or professionals who are always in transit or shielded from light. Nonetheless, the watch evokes a sharp look not only just for professionals.

Perhaps the most commonly seen bezel markers are on dive watches. These scales go from zero to 60, indicating minutes in an hour, and are used to keep track of time spent underwater, a critical parameter along with depth and remaining air. The first 15 (sometimes 20) minutes are marked in one-minute increments while the rest of the scale is usually marked in five-minute increments. The increased resolution for the first 15 minutes on the scale allows divers to time decompression stops with relative precision during ascents at the end of a dive. To use a dive bezel, set the zero marker opposite the minute hand; as time passes, you can read off elapsed time on the bezel without having to do any mental calculations.
Sapphire crystal isn’t a new material nowadays. It is a well-known hardness and durability material. On the hardness scale, the only material tougher than sapphire is diamond. Therefore, what this means is the sapphire is immensely scratch-resistant in a way that no other comparable material is. Its fracture toughness is around 4 times greater than Gorilla Glass.
There is no surprise that the most likely interaction we have with Sapphire Crustal is in the displays used for the majority of high and mid-level watches. While glass was used by watchmakers for many years, recently sapphire is used by many manufacturers since this better protects the watch against the elements and Wancher is not an exception for using this incredibly transparent material. Those watches with the Sapphire Crystal will provide you the high quality and there is nothing to worry about getting a scratch on your watch glass.
Hacking feature, also known as the second-hand halt mechanism or second-stop function. Is a feature that allows the watch user to stop the movement and second hand at will. This is normally accomplished by pulling the crown out to its time-setting position, causing the hacking lever to stop the balance wheel and hear the train of the watch. Whereas an automatic watch will continue to run whether or not the crown is pulled. However, a watch with a hacking feature will have the second's hand and movement stop completely.
In the early 20th century, the hacking movement was widely used, especially with military timepieces. It was especially useful and advantageous to synchronize watches during wartime. Now, this feature is useful in maintaining timekeeping accuracy because the wearers can synchronize their watch with a highly accurate clock.
Wancher uses 316L stainless steel for its steel watch cases. 316L is mainly used in the high technology, aerospace, and chemical industries, where maximum resistance to corrosion is essential. A superalloy, 316L is extremely resistant and highly. The dial is the distinctive face of a Wancher watch, the feature most responsible for its identity and readability. Characterized by hour markers fashioned every Wancher dial is designed and manufactured in-house, largely by hand to ensure perfection.
Furthermore, the skeleton case back further adds sophistication to the watch showcasing the beautiful movement inside.
In my opinion, the overall vintage classic look of the watch makes it so different from other similar watches with similar functionalities in the market today
