The model in detail
Meet the watch
In the settimana raw, the week reads like a small journey. A black dot moves from one to seven; the remaining upper section of the dial provides its route back to Monday. There are no foreign-language abbreviations or separate calendar window. You learn a simple correspondence between number and weekday, then read position.
This is a 2021 model, examined here in its 40 mm configuration with a nickel-coated brass dial. The page supplies no separate numerical reference, so settimana raw 40 mm identifies the version. A 36 mm size is also offered. That is a useful choice: the same idea does not demand a large case.
An automatic Sellita SW 200-1 provides the base, with Oechslin’s weekday module above it. The manufacturer lists four components: the dial’s functional reverse, a wheel carrying the dot, a triple-function wheel and a transmission wheel. The dial participates in the construction instead of merely covering it. The small parts count concerns the module, not the entire movement.

Simplicity carries an operational cost. The manual sets both time and weekday through the crown’s outer position. After a stop, you may need to move the hands through several days, choosing the shorter route. For someone rotating watches frequently, that ritual could matter more than the absence of a familiar Monday label.
The Grade 5 titanium case is 10.8 mm thick, with 50 m water resistance. Machining traces are deliberately visible. That is part of the raw character, rather than a promise of mirror finishing. Sabina Brägger handmakes the textile strap. The watch is especially interesting for someone who values visible construction logic and restrained surfaces.
The model has sapphire glass and luminous material on its hands. However, its official page does not state the exact reserve for this version: copying a generic figure from Sellita’s catalogue would be imprecise. When ordering, ask the workshop to confirm the movement version being fitted and its parameters.
The shop lists CHF 2,215 for export and CHF 2,394.40 including 8.1% Swiss VAT, with readiness estimated at one to two months. The export price is not the final landed cost in Uzbekistan. The settimana’s main argument is an unusual, logically constructed week. Its main compromise is the convenience of resetting it.
