Nautilus Arctic White Dial (Day Date)

LIMITED EDITION · 100 pieces only. Once this run sells out, this dial is retired for good — never remade.

Nautilus Arctic White Dial. Applied Indices. BGW9 Grade A Lume. Day Date.

An arctic white Nautilus dial that runs two finishes at once — brushed and matte — so a single colour carries a striking texture contrast.

Finished in brushed and matte white, decorated with polished-black applied beveled indices filled with 100% Swiss Super-LumiNova® BGW9 Grade A for a long, even night-time glow.

Part of the Nautilus Arctic White family.
Limited to a single run and never restocked — once it sells out, it is retired for good. Browse the dials collection .

Dual-finish texture.
Brushed and matte worked into one arctic-white surface — the contrast catches the light differently across the dial and keeps a single colour from reading flat.

Lumed beveled indices.
Polished-black applied indices against the white face, each bevel filled with Swiss Super-LumiNova® BGW9 Grade A — blue at night, white by day, up to 8 hours on a full charge.

Heads up — a dial is one part of the build

Hands. A dial needs a matching set of hands to tell time. For the lume to match, we recommend a set of Swiss Super-LumiNova® BGW9 hands .

Movement. This Day Date dial needs the Seiko NH36 (day + date).

Handle the applied indices with care

The hour markers are individually applied beveled indices. They are seated firmly for normal wear, but like any applied marker they can shift if pressed or knocked during assembly — handle the dial by its edges and seat your hands with care.

Questions, Answered

Everything worth knowing before you build.

Will this dial fit my case?

Yes — this is a standard 28.5mm dial, the industry-standard size for Seiko mod builds, so it fits any case designed for a 28.5mm dial. The case shown with the dial is an aesthetic pairing, not a fitment requirement.

Why does the dial have four legs?

The dial ships with four legs so it fits two different crown positions. Seiko movements come in 3 o'clock and 4 o'clock crown layouts, and the dial feet sit in different places for each. Clip off the two legs that don't match your crown position — two stay, two go.

How do I fit it to a 3 o'clock or a 4 o'clock crown movement?

Remove the two legs that don't match your movement's crown position by clipping or gently twisting them off, then seat the dial as normal. Two legs stay, two go. See the How To Mod tab for the full fitting walkthrough.

Does this dial have lume?

Yes — the indices are filled with 100% Swiss Super-LumiNova® BGW9 Grade A: a blue glow by night, white by day, lasting up to 8 hours depending on charge.

Is this a limited edition — will it be restocked?

Yes, it's a limited edition, and it will not be restocked. Once the run sells out it's retired for good. The edition size is shown on the product page.

Are the markers printed or applied?

Applied. The hour indices are raised, mirror-polished black markers fixed to the brushed-and-matte arctic white surface — not flat print. The faceted metal is what gives the dial its depth and contrast against the pale face.

Which movement do I need?

This is a day-date dial, so it needs the Seiko NH36 — the caliber that drives both the day and the date. An NH35 gives you the date but not the day, so it won't populate the day window.
