Sir Ernest Shackleton
Automatic

Ideal for gentlemen with slimmer wrists, the 38mm version of this exquisite timepiece offers the same features as the standard version but on a smaller scale.

The Sir Ernest Shackleton Automatic is part of Kobold’s Old Explorers Collection. In keeping with Kobold’s heritage of making watches designed for polar expeditions, and in commemoration of the 100th anniversary of his legendary Endurance South Pole expedition, the Sir Ernest Shackleton Automatic pays tribute to the great polar explorer. It is a true masterpiece of watchmaking and features a U.S.-made case and a manufacture caliber with automatic winding mechanism.

A sapphire crystal, exhibition back is threaded and securely screwed into the case, allowing the wearer to admire the handsomely decorated movement. Horological delights include the uniquely shaped hands, made from blued stainless steel and the retro-style dial, covered by five layers of paint to ensure durability and U.V.-resistancy. The attention to detail is emblematic of how exquisite this timepiece truly is.

This watch comes on a full-cut, genuine Louisiana alligator strap, handstitched in Germany. A signed, stainless steel buckle is securely fastened to the strap through a patented screw-locked system. The watch is accompanied by a large, wooden collector’s box with space for two additional watches. It is covered by a 5-year warranty against material defects and faulty craftsmanship.


Limited production of 25 watches per year.
