Colossus Hybrid Digital & Analogue Watch

The Colossus of Rhodes was a 107-foot bronze and iron giant that towered over the harbour like a ten-storey trophy, warning future invaders that Rhodes is tougher than you think. You communicate the same message when you strap on the Stauer Colossus.

In designing the watch, my instructions were clear. Build it as tough as a battleship and fill it full of surprises. Make it a hybrid, because it should work twice as hard as a regular watch. And make it look like a million bucks. When I put it on I want to get excited about rolling up my sleeves. Looking at the final product, Id say Mission Accomplished.

The Colossus Hybrid Watch may not be old enough to qualify as a Wonder of the Ancient World, but its still darn impressive. The heavy metal case features a rotating gunmetal bezel that frames the stunning analogue / digital dial with markers and numerals that really pop against the bold black face. Luminous white hands and a bright yellow second hand mark analogue time with a precision quartz movement and a trio of digital windows handle time as well as day, date.

The Colossus secures with a unique folded stainless steel bracelet that includes textured, dark-toned centre links. A rugged timepiece that proves even tougher than it looks.
