Sarek Ladies – Ice Blue - a Swedish national treasure on your wrist Watch / Info inquiry
GoS introduced the Ice Blue tempered dials for the first time in the model Nordic Seasons Winter that was introduced during Baselworld 2012 and the Ice Blue tempering was featured again in the first GoS dress watch Bifrost two years after. Patrik and Johan have now further refined both the steel patterns and dial finishing and are proud to add Sarek Ice Blue to the GoS collection. Patrik is able to create separate blue nuances for the two different steel types in the Damascus steel pattern by tempering the dial in multiple steps. The colors of tempered steel are created when light is reflected on the surface and slightly different nuances can be experienced based on the angle of reflection and the light source. These dynamics combined with the highly detailed and reflective surface results in a dial that is both elegant and eye-catching.
The ladies model shares some of the Viking inspired details that were introduced with the men's Sarek while adding new details such as the strap screws. The elliptic grooves on the case ring which GoS premiered on the men´s Sarek have been made more elegant and the whole case is high gloss polished. Another striking difference us the index markers of Sarek Ladies, which opened to show the colored steel below. The slightly sloped case interior provides more light to the indexes and provides a surface on which the colored dial is reflected.
The patterns and tempered natural coloring of the Sarek damascus steel dials are inspired by the landscape of a valley in Sarek national park in Swedish Lapland. Sarek National Park is regarded as a Swedish national treasure and is often referred to as Europe's last true wilderness area. It hosts the largest Moose (Älg) in Europe and is also home to 100 glaciers and six of Sweden’s 13 highest peaks. The park is 2000 square kilometers of majestic and untouched wilderness and its remoteness is matched only by the breathtaking beauty of its peaks, valleys, and fast-running mountain rivers.
The hands of the Sarek Ladies are high gloss polished in a Dauphine finish with a center ridge to emphasize our inspiration from Viking arrow and spear heads. Sarek is powered by a Soprod A10 movement, which is equipped with a custom GoS triskele rotor, finished in satinized dark grey with am additional rhodinized counter weight. The Sarek Ladies is available with black Sarek Moose leather strap or optional pastel colored straps in high-quality leather, all fitted with a stainless steel folding clasp. Shapes from Viking sword handles were the main source of inspiration when we designed the new GoS crown. The result is a unique crown that is highly ergonomic.
