The Santos Homage Build pays tribute to one of horology’s most iconic designs, blending timeless elegance with modern craftsmanship. Its square stainless steel case features a mix of brushed and polished surfaces, paired with a finely detailed bezel secured by exposed screws—a nod to the enduring aviation-inspired aesthetic.
Underneath the sapphire crystal lies a clean, classic dial with Roman numerals, blued steel hands, and a date window at 6 o’clock. Powered by a reliable Japanese automatic movement, the Ascendant offers smooth performance and lasting dependability.
The integrated bracelet flows seamlessly from the case, ensuring a comfortable fit and a bold wrist presence. Whether paired with formal attire or worn casually, the Santos embodies a refined versatility that transcends time and trends.

As with all SALRIN builds, the Ascendant is made to order and fully customizable to suit the wearer’s preferences. Please reach out for modifications. Allow 3–4 weeks lead time for importing all Japanese/Swiss movements.
