This stealthy, blacked-out new variant of the famous S.A.R. from Mühle-Glashütte was made in collaboration with the renowned, Hamburg-based family jewelry company, Wempe.

Named the S.A.R. Rescue-Timer SK Hamburg, the watch was made in support of the German Sea Rescue, which is Germany’s coastal rescue service who –

are quite similar to the UK’s Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) who I imagine would also make good use of their own badass watch – I digress.

​

The Special Edition, which is limited to 150 pieces, also marks the construction of a new vessel, the sea rescue cruiser Hamburg, whose name "SK Hamburg” is proudly printed on its dial in red letters.

In addition to the above, the Special Edition S.A.R. Rescue-Timer SK Hamburg boasts one or two other unique features that further distinguish it from the original S.A.R. (which btw is an incredible watch in itself).

​
Its dial is in matte black with its hands and indices both of which have been coated in black SuperLumiNova while its case is in Stainless steel (measuring Ø 42mm x H13.5mm) has been given a tough matte black PVD-coating.
​
Historically the S.A.R. Rescue-Timer was designed with its crown at 4 o'clock, which has been rounded off for safety reasons – namely so that no sailor could be injured when rescuing someone from the water or the lifeboat.
​

The case which is water-resistant to an impressive 100bar AKA 1000m has been fitted with: a PVD-coated Stainless steel back, a screw-in crown, a 4mm thick Sapphire crystal and a black rubber bezel which helps to make it particularly robust.

The watch comes on a black rubber strap with: a PVD-coated, Stainless steel folding safety-clasp and wet or dry suit extension. The strap is attached to the lugs via screws.

​
Powering the watch is an SW 200-1 Mühle Version, automatic movement which features Mühle’s woodpecker neck regulation, custom rotor, characteristic surface finishes, stop-second, fast date correction and power-reserve of 38-hrs.
​

The new Mühle S.A.R. Rescue-Timer "SK Hamburg" watch available exclusively from branches of Juwelier WEMPE where it is listed for 1’990€ which includes a donation of 100€ for the Sea Rescuers for each watch sold.
