The McQuaide C1 Sunburst is inspired by the moments when the clouds part and sunlight radiates across the sky, celebrating those fleeting, luminous instants of warmth and energy, a reminder of optimism in everyday life. 

Encased in a sleek 39mm cushion case at 12mm thick, the C1 Sunburst offers a perfectly balanced presence on the wrist. Its contemporary proportions ensure all-day comfort, while the distinctive Damascus Steel construction means no two cases share the same undulating patterns, every piece is truly one of a kind.

The radiant sunburst dial reveals dynamic texture and depth as it catches the light, shifting beautifully with every movement of the wrist. This vibrant display delivers a striking contrast against the intricate Damascus Steel case. A scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating guarantees exceptional clarity from every angle, preserving the dial’s brilliance for years to come.

At its heart beats the Swiss Sellita SW200-1b automatic movement, chosen for its proven reliability and precision. With 100m (10ATM) water resistance, the C1 Sunburst is built to perform, equally in the city, the outdoors or wherever your journey leads.

The McQuaide C1 Sunburst is more than a timepiece, it is a statement of energy, individuality, and timeless design.
