Imagine taking everything you love about the Naos Automatik and giving it a serious upgrade. That's what the new Pro version feels like.

Now, let’s explore the fine points, innovations, and technical finesse waiting for you. Starting with something truly special.

 

 

Luxurious Heart

The highlight lies within. Both timepieces feature high-performing movements – that's our standard. However, the Naos Pro Automatik showcases a uniquely luxurious STERNGLAS innovation that our product developer Keyvan is especially proud of:

The upgraded Miyota 9015 Premium movement in the stunning "Gilt" edition, paired with a black PVD rotor engraved with the golden Sternglas logo, truly steals the show.

Notably, the refined rotor is a first for the STERNGLAS lineup. With the glass case back, you can admire this captivating movement in action and gain a deeper appreciation for its mechanics.

This combination is unlike anything we've offered before. If we're going Pro, we're going all out. But wait, there’s more…

 

Redesigned Dial with Luminova 

The Naos Automatik features a classic white dial—a timeless design that never fades. With the Pro version, we've elevated it even further: the Naos Pro Automatik boasts a curved, satin-finished dial in a soft alabaster shade, exuding vintage charm.

For enhanced readability, we've refined the indices, enlarged the numbers, and thickened the lines. The date window also showcases a polished frame, while the contrasting hands highlight the dial's clear structure.

 

 

As the evening unfolds, the beige Luminova on the hands and indices glows beautifully, ensuring you can always keep track of the time—unlike the Naos Automatik, which lacks Luminova and won’t illuminate in the dark.

 

Polished and Brushed Case

Both Bauhaus timepieces feature a 38 mm diameter and a durable 316L stainless steel case with scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. With a water resistance of up to 5 bar, you can confidently wear it in light rain.

So far, so STERNGLAS.

While the Naos Automatik has a fully polished case, the Naos Pro Automatik blends polished and brushed finishes: a polished bezel and case back complement a brushed middle section. This not only adds sophistication but also makes the watch appear slimmer.

 

 

At just 9 mm thick, the Naos Pro Automatik is 25% thinner than the standard 12 mm version, ensuring even greater comfort. You’ll hardly notice it when you button up your shirt.

To make time adjustments easier, we’ve enlarged the crown and improved its grip on the Naos Pro Automatik. No more fumbling when setting the watch – just one of the many enhancements based on feedback from our STERNGLAS community.

 

 

Details that Make the Difference

So, which one is the perfect choice for you? The Naos Automatik and the Naos Pro Automatik each have their own strengths. 

The Naos Automatik is the perfect gateway into mechanical Bauhaus watches, offering timeless design, reliable technology, and exceptional value at just $439.

 

 

However, the Pro version elevates everything to the next level.

If you’re looking to enhance your watch collection, THIS is the timepiece for you – with its technical finesse and luxurious features.

Both models embody STERNGLAS quality, but with the Pro version sets new standards: superior movement, optimized dial, slimmer case, and elegant details.

With the Naos Pro Automatik, elegance, prestige, and precision become your everyday companions.

 

 

Ultimately, the choice between the Naos Automatik and Naos Pro Automatik is yours. The good news? You can't go wrong with either.
