Buy NowThe Brookville is back in a Calligraphy Edition that keeps the same 38mm case people liked while reworking everything on top of it: dial, hands, crown, and bracelet are all new. The 'Calligraphy' name comes from the dial's parchment-like texture, and the design carries the theme further with a fountain pen nib standing in as the counterweight on the seconds hand, a detail easy to miss until you catch it turning.
It's offered in three dial colors, green, blue, and lavender, all built on the identical 38mm case and movement. The applied Arabic numerals and markers are heavily filled with lume, sitting under a flat sapphire crystal with inner AR coating. A diamond-style crown, topped with a cabochon, screws down to help hold 100 meters of water resistance.
The caseback is also screw-down and built with an exhibition window, showing off the blue Islander rotor and its engraved line: 'Time is the great equalizer. It makes us all equal.' The 20mm bracelet uses quick-release pins, female endlinks for a better fit on smaller wrists, and screw-secured links for easy sizing, finishing in a tool-less micro-adjust clasp that tapers to 16mm.
A matching FKM rubber strap with its own quick-release spring bars ships alongside it, so the look can be swapped without extra tools. Inside is the Miyota 9039, an automatic movement running at 28,800 bph. It is a true no date movement so there are no 'ghost' date wheel positions when using the crown. It can also be hand-wound, holding roughly 40 hours of power reserve on a full wind.
