For those who didn't see it yet: It's called the Nav-B-Uhr ST.1 Premium.
Long name! You have it in 44 or 47mm.
I like the work on the 6497-2 bridges and of course, a swan-neck and a screw balance with some unusual and very aerodynamic 2 flair spokes helps.
Note the Steinhart known "S" symbol cut in the ratchet wheel.
Some more detail about the movement here:

Base caliber ETA Unitas 6497-1, 16 1/2'',handwinding, Swiss made
17 jewels
18,000 vibrations per hour
3/4-bridge with escape wheel island of our own production
Radial, decentralized Geneva stripes
Pallet fork bridge pearled
Two-spoke screw balance
Bevelled swan-neck fine adjustment of our own production
Skeletonized and brushed ratchet wheel
Perlage under the ratchet wheel


It looks great I must say! It comes in 3 versions.


For the dial: Some nice sandwich and powerful lume will satisfy most of us.
Price is 807€ or right above 1000$ before VAT(at today's rate).
Not bad for what you get!
