Stauer Noire Automatic Men's Watch

THE STORY

Stauer built their reputation on watches that wear their vintage inspiration proudly, and the Noire is one of their most ambitious pieces. Styled on the grand complications of 1930s watchmaking, this 27-jewel automatic packs a full suite of calendar functions into one dramatically presented dial — month, day, date, moonphase, and a 24-hour indicator, all laid out across a deep black guilloche face with gold-tone hands and white Arabic numerals. It's a bold, theatrical watch that makes no apologies for its love of complication.

The case carries that era's aesthetic confidently — a large 42mm round case with ornate cabochon-set crown and pushers, substantial proportions, and a warm gold-tone finish that pairs beautifully with the deep burgundy croc-embossed leather strap. This is the kind of watch that starts conversations. It comes with its original Stauer box and polishing cloth, presenting as a very complete package in great condition with only minor wear.
