Apose N°3 Douz Or Rose & Noir: French automatic watchmaking in 40mm

Apose’s N°3 Douz Or Rose & Noir contrasts a polished black dial with warm rose-gold-coloured casework. The underlying case, bezel and crown are 316L steel with a five-micron rose-gold coating, not solid gold. At 40mm, the watch retains the brand’s rounded-square outline and distinctive quarter-hour numerals, with luminous detailing integrated into the hands and chapter ring.

A France Ébauches automatic movement powers hours, minutes and seconds, with stop seconds, a 44-hour reserve and a 4Hz operating frequency. Apose quotes regulation to −4/+4 seconds per day. Sapphire crystal with anti-reflective treatment and a 10-bar water-resistance rating complete the specification. The official catalogue price is €2,700 on a textured Longchamp leather strap.
