Why customers love Venezianico?

The NEREIDE ACQUAFORTE is a very beautiful engraved watch, waterproof up to 200 meters deep, it takes its name from the submarine Néréide. The case back represents the "Lion of Saint Mark". The case is made of 316L steel, anti-reflective sapphire crystal and the crown engraved with a cross and screwed. The movement is a Miyota 9039 Automatic. The case diameter is 42 mm for a thickness of 11.90 mm. The leather strap is 22mm wide.

A great opportunity this little Venetian equipped with the GMT nh34 movement from Seiko Its freshness, its vintage and classy look make it very important in my collection It makes me forget my unconditional taste for Arabic numerals and seduced me with its harmonious indexes its compactness 39 mm in diameter and its lug to lug which makes it easy to wear even in dress mode I found it at the time in 2022 at 470 euros which made it ultra competitive but today it is at 625 euros catalog price and the NH34 movement is widely distributed among other micro brands which offer very good quality products at lower prices

A few months ago, I was hesitating between a red Aquis (41.5) and a blue tungsten Aquis (39.5). I finally opted for the red one (review on this site!) whose diameter and deep and original color were in line with my current aspirations. And now Venezianico, an Italian brand, has recently offered something new: a diver with a tungsten bezel and a blue dial, here pearly and beautiful. All in ideal dimensions: 39.1mm in diameter, 45.5mm from lug to lug, 10.5mm thick (only!) and 126gr in weight (on a steel bracelet adjusted to my 16.5 wrist) (all measured by me). Delighted to find the Miyota 9039 again (a movement that equips 5 other watches in my collection, with efficiency and regularity). The absence of a date suits me perfectly, especially considering the size and appearance of the dial, which we can thus fully enjoy. I would like to highlight 3 strong points here. First of all, of course, the truly incredible dial, especially with a formidable anti-reflective sapphire crystal. We often want to dive into it! I would also mention the general dimensions (see above). And finally its relative versatility: at first glance sporty because it is a diver (unidirectional bezel, water-resistant to 200m, screw-down crown), the size (including thickness) and its dial allow it to be worn quite easily in more serious circumstances (except during the ambassador's evenings, of course!). We could regret a general form of case that is conventional and usual, as well as a limited adjustment of the steel bracelet (no mini links (half link), nor micro adjustments since it is a butterfly folding clasp). But we quickly forget these two remarks when appreciating its overall characteristics and its unique and magical dial, associated with a very competitive price!

Wearing infinity on your wrist? That's what Venezianico claims in this new version of its classic Redentore model in the UltraBlack version. And I have to say that I think the promise has been kept! The dial covered in Musou Black paint absorbs 99.4% of the light. It's hard to see it in the photos, but this deep black has a beautiful effect on the wrist. The absence of indexes also contributes to this effect, only the elegant logo at noon is present on the dial. I chose the 40mm case (it also exists in 36mm), as well as the black calfskin strap and signed pin buckle (you can add a steel strap with a folding clasp, but that must significantly change the overall effect of the model). On the back a beautiful engraving that represents space and its immensity, we will also note that the crown is signed with the brand logo which takes up the cross present at the top of the large clock on the "San Marco" square. It is of course not a watch for every day, but it should not be restricted to only a tuxedo, it has its place on multiple occasions and allows you to engage in conversation with enthusiasts or the curious!

The first microbrand to feature the then brand new NH34 caliber from Seiko, the Venezianico brand is offering a variation in the era of time in 2022, with a smaller diameter of 39mm while keeping the DNA of the Nereide, its very first model funded on Kickstarter in 2017, then under the name Meccaniche Veneziane. And the success is there, the quality does not disappoint and the model sells without any problem. The watch that I am presenting to you today is in the direct line of this Nereide GMT 2022, given that it is in a very summery color released on August 9, nicknamed "Cielo". Cielo, because it is indeed the Italian sky that inspired this creation. The azure blue reflected on the sea and the white of the few cottony clouds that dot the Venetian horizon. When you get out of the package, which was well packaged and in the image of the brand, there is a qualitative white box and outer box, which give an impression of quality. In the box is the warranty and a map of Venice. The watch is well protected and the unboxing experience is rather premium for the price of the watch. Some will regret a fairly large box that will take up space in the closet, but this is a problem that any watch fan must face, shall we say. At first glance, the watch exudes quality, the finishes on the case are very correct for the price, the crown is signed and the BK7 insert is very beautiful. The glass is sapphire and has an anti-reflective coating. A small detail that enthusiasts will appreciate. The bracelet looks like a Patek Philippe Nautilus bracelet, a less common choice than the everlasting Oyster and Jubilee, we regret the lack of articulation at the first link of the bracelet, which will tend to lengthen the total length of the piece. The bracelet closes with a butterfly clasp rather than a diving clasp, which inevitably makes it more complicated to adjust to the precise size... Especially since the bracelet does not come with any "half links" while these are on sale on the brand's website... For €30 each. As for the color, the star of this model, we feel the desire to surf on the "Tiffany Blue" fashion launched by the Nautilus Tiffany & co. and which we find everywhere since. It should be noted that the blue of the Nereide GMT is much closer to a "Tiffany" blue than other models like the Tissot PRX and Citizen Tsuyosa "ice blue". The watch is comfortable, although a little thick for its diameter (due to a caliber that is not the thinnest). We regret the presence of a 120-click bezel, more suitable for a diving bezel. The watch would have deserved a bi-directional 48-click bezel in line with its GMT function... To get away from technical considerations, does this watch do its job? Does it transport me under the Venetian sky every time I look at it to know the time? I would say that it is a great success and fully fulfills this promise, the captivating blue of its dial and its insert never leave me unmoved when I look down at it. I therefore recommend it without hesitation, thanks to its many positive points, its unisex diameter and its vibrant colors make it a very good summer companion for any watch lover. It remains to be seen whether it has a place in the collection outside of summer, because it will certainly not go unnoticed at work in the fall!
