Description
The Zelos GT series takes its cues from classic grand tourers - streamlined, wearable, and built around proportion rather than excess.
The Carbon Teal refines this further with a smaller 40mm case and a dial that introduces structure through colour. The forged carbon base keeps the watch understated, while the blue lume stripes create a clear visual axis across the dial.
Inspiration & Design
The design draws from automotive references, particularly instrument readability and directional flow.
The racing stripe concept is integrated into the dial rather than applied as decoration:
- Creates a central visual guide across the display
- Improves legibility without adding clutter
- Reinforces the GT's performance-inspired identity
At 40mm with a 45mm lug-to-lug, the watch wears more compact than the 42mm variants, making it more versatile across wrist sizes.
Dial & Case Details
The dial is forged carbon, giving each piece a unique marbled pattern.
- Matte surface reduces reflections
- Blue Super-LumiNova stripes provide contrast in daylight
- BGW9 lume emits a cool blue glow in low light
The forged carbon case maintains consistency:
- Lightweight and comfortable for daily wear
- Subtle texture variation across each case
- Paired with a box-shaped sapphire crystal for added depth and slight vintage distortion at angles
The combination creates a balance between organic material and structured layout.
Movement & Mechanics
Powered by the Miyota 9133 automatic movement, featuring an integrated power reserve complication.
- Approx 40–45 hour power reserve
- 28,800bph
- Hacking and hand-winding
The power reserve display is incorporated cleanly, adding functionality without interrupting the dial’s symmetry.
Bracelet/Strap & Wearability
Fitted on a leather strap with matching stitching, keeping the watch grounded despite its technical materials.
- 20mm lug width
- Softens the overall look of the carbon case
- Comfortable for extended wear
On wrist:
- 45mm lug-to-lug gives a compact, controlled fit
- 12.5mm thickness (with crystal) remains balanced
- Lightweight case enhances long-term wearability
Final Impression
The Zelos GT Carbon Teal offers a slightly different take on the GT concept.
It introduces direction and contrast through the racing stripes, making it more immediately legible and visually engaging than the more uniform carbon variants.
Still, it remains restrained enough for daily wear.
This is a GT that feels more intentional in its layout, without losing the lightweight and material-driven appeal of forged carbon.
