Details

During the course of our research into the Sceptre's predecessor, the Astro, we found ourselves neck-deep in the history of the Cold War, and the tales of subterfuge, espionage and technological advancement that were part of this simmering conflict between the superpowers that remained after World War II.

The concept of the October takes the soviet arm of this conflict and applies the aesthetic influence from the submarines of that era, as well as referencing the overall aesthetic of concrete, steel and brutalist architecture.

The devil's in the detail

The design of the October’s printing on the main dial is different from the other designs, featuring a reticle sight with a subtle gloss print at the cardinal points on the main dial. This mimics the measurement scale of the periscopes used by submarines to remain sub-surface but observe what’s happening above the waves.

Why October?

A colour scheme of black/brown, vivid orange, brushed steel and glossy white makes this dial a bold but neutral design and, coupled with the orange paint-filled triangle on the bezel and the orange silicone strap, the October has great wrist presence without being garish. Why October? Well, that would be stating the obvious, Mishter Ryan.

The case and bezel are fully matte blasted stainless steel 316L, a marine grade steel to prevent rusting when exposed to the salty atmospheres of coastal operations.

“Another in a long line of top drawer design and quality watches from Marloe. The dial is very simple but subtle and works very well with the matte case finish.”

—Stephen P.

“Best experience from a micro brand to date. Fit and finish, presentation and prompt delivery. Will purchase again and again. Without a doubt more value then cost.”

—James P.

“A great watch, the dial is very subtle and seems to change colour in the sun. The lume is good and you can actually tell time during the night - it is now my everyday watch.”

—Rob

Strength Personified

The case of the Sceptre is aggression and strength personified. Reaching 42mm in diameter by 12.65mm tall, it's perfectly sized to have bold wrist presence but wear neatly too. The case has a fully matte blasted finish showcasing the rugged aesthetics of the Sceptre design.
