What to know

The Stardust Pluto gives Sarpaneva’s openworked dial a silvered, frost-like base with blue two-tone hands. Multiple luminous colours animate its layered construction after dark. The recognisable Korona case is made from Finnish Outokumpu steel and measures 42mm across, with a crown at four o’clock.

A modified automatic Chronode P.1003 movement provides 60 hours of reserve and relocates small seconds to ten o’clock. Through the back, the maker’s Moonface rotor gives the movement its own personality. This Pluto edition was introduced alongside the warmer Mars in February 2026, with twenty examples per version. Both photographs here show Pluto.
