Nebulosa
A galaxy with the works on show.
Nebulosa — Portuguese for nebula — is the Hagora watch with nothing to hide. There is no dial in the usual sense: the Miyota 8N24 is a factory-skeletonised automatic, so you look straight through to the plates, the wheel train, the mainspring barrel and the balance swinging at six. Around it runs a chapter ring finished in a deep, glittering starry field, so the movement sits inside its own small piece of night sky. Applied baton markers and skeleton hands are filled with Super-LumiNova to keep it readable after dark.
The case is a compact, integrated-look sports design: 40 mm across and just 46 mm lug-to-lug, in brushed 316L stainless steel with polished chamfers and a round bezel held by six exposed screws. A flat sapphire crystal protects the front and a sapphire exhibition back shows the open-worked rotor. It comes on a black vulcanised rubber strap with a signed steel buckle, so it wears light and sits close to the wrist.
Two things skeleton buyers ask, answered plainly: the 8N24 runs at 21,600 vph, it does not hack (the seconds hand keeps running while you set the time) and it is not hand-wound — a few flicks of the wrist or a night on the arm brings it up. Power reserve is around 40 hours. Each movement is regulated in our Bristol workshop before casing.
