Stepping up in the same colour and case shape
The Catalina sits within Ingersoll's 1892 line, which revived the American brand's working-class watchmaking heritage for a modern audience — the skeleton dial is the clearest expression of that ethos, removing the face so the Miyota movement becomes the display. The rose gold PVD case reads warm against the blue leather strap, a combination that feels considered without demanding attention. At 42mm the proportions are squarely contemporary, and the open dial gives the impression of more space than a solid one would at the same size. The Miyota 821A is a competent and reliable automatic workhorse — not a movement with drama of its own, but one that will run without complaint and keeps the watch accessible to someone new to automatics.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch
Can I swim with it?
Showering yes, swimming no. 50m covers splashes and brief immersion, but a swimming stroke generates well above the pressure that figure describes.
Will the glass scratch?
It can, over time. Mineral glass handles daily wear but will pick up fine scratches that sapphire would not.
Does it need a battery?
No. It is automatic — the motion of your wrist winds it, and there is no cell to replace.
Is it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as men's.
