New Venezianico Nereide GMT Ceratung™ 4521500S

A material that sets new standards

The Ceratung™ innovation of the Nereide GMT is a true material balancing act: for the first time, a bezel combines ceramic and tungsten in one insert, making the surface practically indestructible. On the Mohs scale, these materials are rated 8 and 9 — significantly harder than steel — ensuring that scratches and signs of wear have almost no chance in everyday use. The result is not just a technical detail, but a significant gain in quality for anyone who wears their watch beyond the desk and display case.

Only available with the Canova steel bracelet on request!

Robustness meets everyday usability

The bezel's resistance directly contributes to its practicality: the ceramic component provides gloss and colorfastness, while the tungsten forms the scratch-resistant core. In practice, this means intensive use, beach, backpack or desk — the look remains, and the feel is convincing. Especially for a sport and travel diver who often switches between different environments, this material mix is a significant comfort factor.

Functional GMT Bezel

The construction of the bezel is as well thought out as its material: the 24-click design allows for quick, precise setting of the second time zone and feels solid and reliable. Thanks to the bidirectional rotation, the target time can be adjusted with just a few manipulations — a clear advantage over rigid, unidirectional systems, especially when switching between time zones quickly or checking home time on the go.

A modern Swiss caliber

Inside, the automatic caliber V3290, based on the Soprod C125, works and is specially designed as a GMT. Visually, a skeletonized, rhodium-plated rotor shapes the movement; the sandblasted bridges provide a discreet, technically contemporary contrast. Mechanically, the movement offers the familiar robustness of a modern Swiss movement and, at the same time, an aesthetically reduced but high-quality manufacturing.

Case and Proportions

The case relies on clear dimensions: with a 42 mm diameter, 12.5 mm height, and a lug-to-lug of approximately 49 mm, the watch sits prominently but not oversized. The 316L steel case appears solid and harmonizes with the bezel, while the screwed crown type and 20 ATM water resistance qualify the Nereide as a reliable companion for water sports.

Dial and Legibility

For legibility and everyday suitability, the dial has been carefully designed: a lacquered surface with a satinized 24-hour ring structure creates depth, the sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating maintains clear visibility, and the BGW9 luminous material ensures that hour, minute, and GMT markers remain precisely recognizable even after dark. The date function at 6 o'clock is subtly integrated and does not disturb the harmonious balance.

For Travelers and Adventurers

This watch is aimed at people who are on the go and value material innovation: travelers, sport divers, and all those looking for a robust GMT with a modern face. It doesn't demand a compromise on style — on the contrary: the combination of technical solutions and aesthetic restraint makes it a versatile, wearable instrument that proves itself in practice and shows character visually.

Conclusion

The Nereide GMT Ceratung™ is more than just a play with high-tech materials. It combines functional robustness, precise GMT operation, and a modern movement aesthetic into a coherent overall package — ideal for anyone who actively uses their watch and relies on durable quality and well-thought-out usability.
