DUG Purist Type 1 Granitgrau is another interesting microbrand in the Watch Republic offer. This time, the German brand from Glashütte and the minimalist Purist model in the undated version.
The gray Granitgrau dial does the most work here. The gradient goes from the lighter center to the dark edge. In addition, there is a clear, matte texture obtained thanks to thickly applied paint.
The case is 40 mm in diameter and has very good proportions. Brushed and polished surfaces add character, while the sapphire case back allows you to view the mechanism.
Inside there is an automatic DUG 400 based on the Sellita SW400. The mechanism is assembled and decorated in Glashütte, and the power reserve is approximately 40 hours.
For me, this is a very interesting example of a German microbrand. A simple design, an unusual dial and a good 40 mm create a really successful everyday watch.
