Galo, a young horological company with a passion for crafting unique timepieces, ventures into the depths with their Super2000 Dark Edition, a playful yet sophisticated take on the classic dive watch. This isn’t your typical bulky diver; the Super2000 boasts a refined slim profile, making it equally at home beneath the cuff of a dress shirt or paired with more casual attire. The circular brushed dial provides a clean and legible canvas, while the exhibition caseback offers a glimpse into the heart of this aquatic adventurer: a reliable Miyota 9039 automatic movement, complete with a custom Galo rotor.
Upon its initial release, the Super2000 offers a choice of two distinct dial orientations, both sharing the same core design but exuding different vibes. You can opt for the laid-back “Siesta3” with its horizontal layout or the more traditional “Classic3” with a vertical arrangement. This thoughtful touch allows for a degree of personalisation right from the outset.
The Dark Edition, in particular, arrives equipped with both a stylish steel beads-of-rice bracelet, adding a touch of vintage charm and robust elegance, and a practical black tropical rubber strap, perfectly suited for aquatic adventures or more active pursuits.
Adding to the customisation options, on the preorder day, enthusiasts will also have the opportunity to purchase one of four additional leather straps, allowing for further tailoring of the watch’s aesthetic.
The anticipation for the Galo Super2000 Dark Edition is building, with the preorder commencing on May 29th. This is a special edition, limited to just 320 individually custom-engraved pieces, each bearing a unique mark. Given Galo’s track record of ten successful campaigns and watches finding homes in over 55 countries, this limited run is likely to be highly sought after.
Each Super2000 Dark Edition will include both the beads-of-rice bracelet and the black tropical rubber strap, offering immediate versatility. For those who appreciate early adoption, it’s worth noting that this preorder price of $468 represents a special opportunity, as prices are slated to increase by 20% for the next batch.
Galo’s origins, born from the passionate discussions of watch enthusiasts in online forums, underscore their commitment to both quality craftsmanship and personalised customer care. The Super2000 Dark Edition embodies this ethos, delivering a distinctive dive watch with a fresh perspective on horology.
It’s a timepiece that confidently blends a playful design with a robust build and a reliable movement, ready to accompany you on any adventure, whether it’s exploring the depths or navigating the urban jungle. Don’t miss the chance to dive into Galo’s latest creation.
