Fuso GMT — polar white enamel
Two times, one glance.
Fuso is the Portuguese word for a time zone — fuso horário — and this is the Hagora watch for people whose day runs in two of them. A second, orange 24-hour hand reads home time against the fixed bezel while the main hands keep local time, and because the NH34 is a “caller” GMT, you set the second hand independently with the crown: no need to disturb the time you've already set.
The dial is real enamel — a pure polar white, fired rather than printed, with a depth and a faint glassy texture that a lacquered dial doesn't have. The applied markers and the hands are filled with BGW9 Super-LumiNova, which glows ice-blue in the dark; the bezel numerals are lumed too, so the second time zone stays readable through the night. In daylight the only colour on the watch is the orange GMT hand.
The 40 mm case is brushed and polished 316L stainless steel with a flat sapphire crystal, a screw-down crown and a sapphire exhibition back showing the Hagora-signed rotor. It is rated to 100 m, so it goes in the sea as happily as it goes through an airport. The three-link steel bracelet has solid end-links and a milled clasp, and the 20 mm lugs take any strap you own.
Inside is the Seiko NH34A, the Japanese automatic GMT: 24 jewels, hand-winding, hacking seconds and around 41 hours of power reserve. Each movement is regulated in our Bristol workshop before casing.
