The new Ultra Thin Edition of the Explorer Watch Case in Titanium Grade 4, emerging as the thinnest and lightest watch case profile possible!!

With a mere 9.96mm thickness when utilizing a solid caseback, this 36mm watch case offers unparalleled sleekness and elegance. This is unprecedented given a NHxx movement is 7.59mm in thickness. Meaning that the sapphire, case and tolerance for hands add up to only 2.37mm!! It is thin, incredibly thin and without a doubt the thinnest watch case in the market for NH movement!!

On top of being the thinnest, to make it the lightest, it is now made in TITANIUM GRADE 4!! Grade 4 titanium finds widespread use in aerospace and medical applications. The reason we opt for Grade 4 is due to its status as the strongest pure grade titanium and displays the highest strength of all the unalloyed commercially pure grades coupled with the ability to be polished to a lustrous finish. What many people may not realize is that Grade 4 titanium is also harder than 316L stainless steel, the standard material for most watch cases. This remarkable property not only enhances its durability but also provides superior resistance to scratches and dents, making it an excellent choice for those seeking strength and longevity in their timepieces. This makes Grade 4 is a superb material for crafting watch cases, offering a perfect blend of strength, corrosion resistance, lightweight design, and an elegant appearance.

Every part including casecrown and caseback in titanium. Allowing the weight to be at 18.5 grams, an amazing 40% lighter than 316L Stainless Steel EC36 UTE (30.2 grams).

This version is Fully Sandblasted: case, crown and caseback. (Browse photos to see comparison of sandblasted titanium, polished titanium and 316L stainless steel.)

Included in the package are a flat double-sided coated clear AR sapphire, a choice between a solid caseback, and a coin edge screw-down crown.

Crafted to accommodate all of our 28.5mm dials, SKX013 chapter rings, and the original Type M NH movements.

**Recommended to pair with Sandblasted Chapter Ring .
**Recommended to pair with luxurious Shell Cordovan Straps .

The water resistance of this watch case reaches 50m, ensuring durability alongside its impressive design.

IMPORTANT: This case can ONLY fit TYPE M of NH35, NH36, NH38, NH70, NH71 and NH72 movement. TYPE L of these movements will NOT fit. Due to low tolerance/space between hands and sapphire, this case is ONLY recommended for professional watchmakers and highly skilled/experienced modders with great level of finesse.

The watch I’ve been waiting for

I have smaller wrists so 36mm is about perfect. Titanium and thin. Couldn’t really get better. The bead blasting is smooth and over all fit and finish is great.
