Overview
Venezianico Nereide Ametista pairs a 0.4 mm slice of natural amethyst with a polished tungsten bezel in a 42 mm steel automatic watch.
Amethyst is a purple variety of quartz, with tones that range from pale violet to deeper shades. Venice traded the stone through its connections with India and Persia, transforming it into jewelry and decorative objects. The dial keeps that natural color and crystalline structure visible, with variations that distinguish one section of stone from another.
The stone is cold-cut, carefully polished, and reduced to a 0.4 mm layer on a brass base. At that thickness, cutting and polishing require close control to avoid chipping the stone. The violet Italian rubber strap repeats the color and closes with a pin buckle.
A polished tungsten insert surrounds the dial in a 120-click rotating bezel. An anti-reflective sapphire crystal covers the dial. Swiss-made BGW9 Super-LumiNova glows in low light after exposure to daylight or artificial light.
The Swiss Sellita SW200-1 automatic movement displays hours, minutes, seconds, and the date. Its 316L stainless steel case measures 42 mm across, 49 mm from lug to lug, and 12.5 mm thick. The crown screws down, and water resistance is rated at 20 atm. The Nereide name recalls the submarine built in Venice in the early 20th century.

Questions & Answers
What does the name Nereide refer to?
It was the name of a submarine built in Venice between 1911 and 1913. The collection draws on that chapter of Venetian naval engineering for its maritime identity and rotating-bezel design.
Will the dial match the photograph exactly?
No. The amethyst surface has natural variations in pattern and tone, so the photograph illustrates the model rather than the exact dial you will receive.
Why use tungsten for the bezel insert?
The polished tungsten insert is highly scratch-resistant, helping it retain its finish during everyday wear. It is a separate component from the case and still needs protection from hard impacts.
How does the rotating bezel measure elapsed time?
Align the bezel’s reference marker with the minute hand at the start of an interval. As the hand advances, the scale shows elapsed minutes. With 120 clicks around a 60-minute scale, each click corresponds to half a minute. The bezel measures time independently of the movement.
How is the thin stone dial constructed?
A 0.4 mm layer of the natural stone is mounted on a brass base. The support allows a thin slice of the material to become a finished dial while preserving its natural surface pattern.
