KORTH VINTAGE
Posted Jun 15, 2023
Korth Vintage is the latest addition to the Korth line of watches. Launched in 2021, Korth Vintage has made a splash in the luxury watch market, bringing the Korth design aesthetic to a more affordable price point. With its retro, vintage-inspired design, the Korth Vintage is sure to appeal to many watch enthusiasts.
Taking a closer look at the watch, its 40mm stainless steel case is finished in a matte black PVD coating, giving it a distinct, vintage look. The case also features a screwed down crown, running at a reasonable water resistance of 5 ATM. On the front, the watch face is clean and uncluttered, consisting of a black dial with white hands and applied indices making it simple and legible. On the side, a brushed steel bezel with a recessed matte black coating completes the vintage look.
For movement, Korth has equipped the Korth Vintage with an automatic 2824-2 movement, which is based on the ETA2824. This is your standard movement, but it is reliable and accurate, with COSC-certified accuracy of -4/+6 seconds per day. It is designed to last for many years and can be serviced at any Korth certified watchmaker. To ensure the watch is resistant to shock, the movement is protected by a stainless steel shock-proof case.
The biggest feature on the Korth Vintage is the sapphire crystal. Korth utilizes highly scratch and shatter-resistant sapphire on their watches, providing the wearer with the assurance that their watch will not be easily damaged. To further protect the dial, the watch face is protected by an anti-reflective treatment that has been applied to both faces of the crystal.
The Korth Vintage is a great affordable watch with its classic vintage design, and reliable automatic movement. The 2824-2 movement is a good, reliable choice and is sure to stand up to the rigours of daily wear. The sapphire crystal is an excellent touch, ensuring that scratches and discoloration are kept to a minimum, and greater protection for the dial.
When it comes to the looks, the Korth Vintage has a timeless retro vibe that really stands out. It is a great option for those looking for a classic watch with a modern look that is still affordable. The matte black PVD case gives the watch a subtle, yet noticeable appearance, and the white dial and applied indices provide clear legibility and an overall clean look.
The only possible downside might be in build quality. Even though Korth utilizes excellent materials, some folks may feel that the watch feels a bit plasticky. The lume, however, is quite good and it lights up the dial at night with no issues.
All in all, the Korth Vintage is a great entry-level watch. It offers a timeless design, excellent materials, and reliable movement, all for an affordable price. Whether you are looking for a certain aesthetic or something reliable and affordable, the Korth Vintage is sure to appeal.
