This is a really beautiful and difficult to find watch, no box or paperwork, fully functional working condition with no significant cosmetic issues. SOTHIS watch brand was founded by Wolfgang Steinkrüger in 1996 in Bielefeld, Germany. The first model produced by the brand is “SPIRIT OF MOON”; with a diameter of 39mm and 3 different face variations. In 1998 the “Spirit of the moon” won a prize in the “Goldene Unruh” competition in Basel. The brand name SOTHIS is inspired by the Greek name of the Egyptian dess Sopdet. In the astrology, SOTHIS can be compared with the star SIRIUS which is to be found in the constellation of CANIS MAJOR (Big Dog). As the brightest star in the northern winter sky, this star was celebrated in the old Egyptian mythology as the dess SOTHIS who showed the old Egyptians not only the changing of the old to new years, but also the times when the River Nile would be flooded, thus flooding the fields with fertile Nile sediment which resulted in a good harvest. Sothis watches are equipped with the Chronograph calibres from the company ETA (7750, 7751, 7753 and 7754), with the exception of the calibre 2025 from Dubois Depraz. All parts are finely decorated with Pearl, Geneva stripes and tainted blue screws. Each automatic movement has a gold plated rotor with the engraved constellation of the Great Dog (CANIS MAJOR) and the brand logo in silver. Initially, the movements, hands and all other parts of the SOTHIS watches were sourced from the established suppliers based in Switzerland. Each watch was assembled exclusively in the Bielefeld workshop. After a while, the company started to use watch parts made in Germany except movements and hands. In December 2012, the brand was acquired by new owners after the demise of Wolfgang Steinkrüger in March 2012. In 2013, the new owners transferred the production to Switzerland.
