Spinnaker Tesei Swiss Automatic Sports Watch with 43mm Bronze Case and Dark Green Dial #SP-5060-02

The new Spinnaker Tesei series of watches pay tribute to Teseo Tesei. Tesei was involved in inventing the human torpedo (called Maiale). It was used by the Regia Marina during World War II. As such, the Tesei is a robustly built timepiece that is the first Spinnaker watch to be hand assembled in Switzerland using a Swiss Made Sellita SW200 automatic movement.

A 43 mm diameter case is painstakingly forged out of solid Bronze with a convex scratch-resistant sapphire lens in place and see through exhibition caseback.

The dial is a well-balanced mix of vintage diving cues with a wave pattern embossing on the dial and circular, triangular and baton applied indexes applied with Swiss Super-LumiNova in a beige vintage color. Bold pencil shaped hour and minute hands are faceted and precisely finished and also applied with Swiss SuperLumiNova offering better low-light visibility and legibility.

True to the Italian spirit of the timepiece – the Tesei features an Italian made, custom designed waterproofed genuine leather straps hand finished with care by a craftsman in Florence. This Swiss Made timepiece is assembled carefully, with the utmost care harmonizing the spirit of romantic, masculine vintage diver together with the best of modern Swiss watchmaking technique.

NOTE: Bronze watch cases will form a unique patina over time giving the watch an aged look.

First Bronze Watch

Posted by Alex M. on Jan 11th 2021

To start, shipping was fast and service was great. A+ for Island Watch. Second, packaging was very good, the watch comes in a very nice box. The Watch: Right out of the box it keeps excellent time running +4/5 seconds a day for the last three weeks. It is bronze and will tarnish/ turn color so expect that. Dial is beautiful, good luminance, very good fit/finish. Only real negative (IMO) is the obnoxiously thick leather straps. Ditch the factory straps and get better (thinner & softer) aftermarket ones.

Spinnaker Tesei

Posted by Paul Duke on Jun 14th 2019

The quality & look and feel of the watch and the strap were excellent, with a couple of caveats: --The bronze case came with considerable patina, right out of the box. --The watch runs fast...very fast, again, right out of the box. Fast = approximately 4 minutes w/in 24 hrs. I consider this to be unacceptable.
