Vario Launches NAVI Voyage Chapter One – Europe Edition with Five Language Variants
Vario’s NAVI Voyage Chapter One: Europe introduces a maritime‑themed watch collection that celebrates Singapore’s historic trading links with five European nations—England, Germany, France, Spain and Italy. Each timepiece features the colors of the respective national flags on the dial and displays the 12‑hour scale in the native language of the country, offering a multilingual “One, Two, Three” experience. The design omits a minute hand, instead using a central hour display with a seconds indicator shaped like a compass needle and an inner scale that divides each hour into fifteen‑minute zones, reinforcing the navigation motif. Housed in a compact 38 mm × 11 mm stainless‑steel case with a 100 m water resistance, the watch combines robust construction with refined details such as a coin‑edge bezel, brushed‑and‑polished lugs, and a matte wave‑pattern dial. Powered by the Miyota 82S5 automatic movement with a 40‑hour power reserve, the watch is finished with an Italian epsom leather strap and priced at $428 (≈ £317). Production is limited to 600 pieces worldwide, allocated as 240 for England, 100 each for Germany and France, and 80 each for Spain and Italy. Vario plans to expand the NAVI Voyage series beyond Europe, with future chapters slated for the Asia‑Pacific region and the Americas, continuing the brand’s homage to global maritime heritage.
