The Belgium manufacturer Ressence uncovers its newest model, the Ressence Type 8 S – Sage Green. A model that correlates with the existing Ressence Type 8 Cobalt Blue that was announced in 2022. This Type 8 S expands the Type 8 series with a new dial color, as ”S” stands for Sage, an earthy greyish-green color.

The Ressence Type 8 S – Sage Green has a matte metallic dial which perfectly tones with the titanium case. Under the renewed domed sapphire crystal the watch only shows the hours and minutes. With that in mind Ressence tells us it can be seen as an entry level model, with a more affordable price tag.

The large central dial rotates within the case to indicate the minutes. The off-center smaller sub dial rotates to mark the hours. There is no crown as you wind and adjust the automatic movement by rotating the case back. The minimalistic design, the titanium and the simplicity of its structure makes this a very light watch with only 42 grams.

The movement of the Ressence Type 8 S – Sage Green has the ROCS 8 mechanism which is driven by the minute axle of a customized and reinforced ETA 2892/2 caliber. It supplies a 36-hour power reserve.
