The Mühle-Glashütte S.A.R. Rescue-Timer Nautical Blue on a metal bracelet is the most refined configuration of the watch that built Mühle's modern reputation. Same 100 bar water resistance. Same 4mm sapphire crystal. Same rubber safety bezel. Same woodpecker neck regulation — the patented innovation that was invented for this watch. But instead of the standard black dial, the Nautical Blue dresses the Rescue-Timer in the colours of the sea it was built to serve: a deep nautical blue dial with bright white Super-LumiNova markers, framed by a blue rubber bezel and secured on a stainless steel bracelet with butterfly clasp.
The colour shift changes the character more than you'd expect. The standard S.A.R. on black rubber is pure operational instrument — it disappears on the wrist and lets the specs do the talking. The Nautical Blue on metal bracelet is an S.A.R. that wants to be seen. The blue dial catches light in a way black cannot, the white markers pop against the deep blue with even more contrast than they manage against black, and the metal bracelet adds a visual weight and polish that rubber deliberately avoids. This is a rescue-grade tool watch that transitions to a dinner table without apology.
Everything underneath is unchanged. The SW 200-1 in the Mühle version with the patented woodpecker neck regulation — originally developed for this watch in 2003. The 4mm anti-reflective sapphire crystal with the date magnifier cut into the underside. The specially rounded case designed to prevent sharp edges from injuring people during rescue operations. And 100 bar water resistance — pressure-tested to 1,000 metres equivalent, immune to saltwater and sudden temperature changes. The Nautical Blue proves that a watch built for the worst conditions can also look its best.

Key Features
- 100 bar (1,000m) water resistance — The full Rescue-Timer specification: pressure-tested for saltwater, sudden temperature changes, and high-pressure hose-downs. Screw-down crown. Ten times the rating of the 29er and Teutonia collections. The Nautical Blue delivers this in a package you'd actually want to wear off the water
- Nautical blue dial with white Super-LumiNova — Deep blue background with bold white markers and triangular indices. The white-on-blue contrast is exceptionally clean in all light conditions, and the generous Super-LumiNova coverage ensures full legibility in darkness
- Blue rubber bezel — The same functional safety bezel from the standard S.A.R. — absorbs lateral impacts, eliminates sharp edges that could injure people during rescue — now in nautical blue. The colour match with the dial creates a unified maritime identity
- 4mm anti-reflective sapphire crystal — Three times the thickness of a standard sapphire. The date magnifying lens is cut into the underside — nothing raised that can be knocked off
- SW 200-1, Mühle Version with patented woodpecker neck regulation — The S.A.R. Rescue-Timer is the watch this regulation was developed for. The spring locks the regulator arm in two axes simultaneously, preventing it from jumping out of position during the shocks and impacts of maritime operations
- Stainless steel bracelet with butterfly clasp — 20mm bracelet with a secure folding deployment clasp. The metal adds presence and versatility that the rubber strap variants deliberately leave behind

Built for Rescue, Made in Glashütte
- The S.A.R. in its element — The standard black Rescue-Timer is operationally invisible.

The metal bracelet completes the transformation from pure tool to versatile daily wear
- Developed with the DGzRS — The German Maritime Search and Rescue Service operates over 60 rescue vessels across the North Sea and Baltic Sea. Their coxswains co-designed the S.A.R. Rescue-Timer for the specific demands of open-ocean rescue
- Where the woodpecker neck regulation was born — The patented shock-resistant regulation was engineered specifically for the S.A.R. before being adopted across every Mühle movement
- Glashütte, Saxony — Every Mühle watch is assembled, regulated, and tested in Germany's most storied watchmaking town — the same town where A. Lange & Söhne and Glashütte Original are made

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Nautical Blue compare to the standard black S.A.R. Rescue-Timer?
Identical specifications: same 42mm case, same 100 bar water resistance, same 4mm sapphire crystal, same rubber safety bezel, same SW 200-1 with woodpecker neck regulation. The differences are aesthetic. The standard (M1-41-03-KB) has a black dial, black rubber bezel, and is typically worn on a black rubber strap — pure stealth tool watch. The Nautical Blue (M1-41-02-MB-II) has a deep blue dial, blue rubber bezel, and is paired here with a stainless steel bracelet — a Rescue-Timer with maritime character that transitions from water to evening wear. Choose the black for operational invisibility. Choose the Nautical Blue for the same 100 bar confidence in a watch you'd also wear to dinner.
How does this compare to the S.A.R. Lumen?
The Lumen (M1-41-08) coats the entire dial in Super-LumiNova for maximum darkness readability — a cream dial that glows blue-green with skeletonized hands. The Nautical Blue (M1-41-02) uses a conventional blue dial with Super-LumiNova on the hands and indices — high contrast and legible, but without the full-lume light-source effect. Choose the Lumen for extreme low-light performance. Choose the Nautical Blue for the most wearable, versatile S.A.R. in the collection.
Is the Nautical Blue also available on rubber?
Yes. The S.A.R. Rescue-Timer Nautical Blue is available on a blue rubber strap as well as this metal bracelet. Both share the same case, dial, movement, and 100 bar water resistance. The rubber strap is lighter and more operational in character. The metal bracelet adds presence and versatility for daily wear and dressier contexts.
Why is the sapphire crystal 4mm thick?
Three times the standard 1.2–1.5mm thickness, providing dramatically greater impact resistance for environments where collisions with deck equipment, rescue hardware, and marine infrastructure are routine. The date magnifying lens is cut into the underside of the crystal rather than applied on top, so nothing raised can be knocked off.
What is the woodpecker neck regulation?
Developed and patented by Mühle-Glashütte in 2003 specifically for the S.A.R. Rescue-Timer, the woodpecker neck regulation locks the regulator arm both sideways and downward, preventing it from jumping out of position during shocks. The innovation was so successful it was adopted across every Mühle movement.
Is this watch made in Germany?
Yes. While the base calibre is Swiss-made (Sellita), it is refined, regulated, and finished in Mühle-Glashütte's own manufactory in Glashütte, Saxony. The woodpecker neck regulation, Mühle rotor, and all finishing are applied in-house. The case, dial assembly, and final quality control — including 100 bar pressure testing — are performed in Glashütte.
How long does the power reserve last?
Up to 41 hours when fully wound. The automatic movement is self-winding through wrist motion. If left unworn for roughly two days, the watch will stop and need to be set again.
Is this a good gift?
The Nautical Blue on metal bracelet is the most giftable S.A.R. in the collection. The standard black Rescue-Timer and the Lumen are operationally focused — they appeal to a specific buyer who values function above all else. The Nautical Blue carries the same 100 bar credentials but wraps them in a colour and bracelet combination that appeals more broadly. The deep blue dial, the maritime story of the DGzRS, and the metal bracelet create a package that works as a daily-wear watch, a conversation piece, and a 100 bar tool watch simultaneously. An excellent choice for birthdays, Father's Day, promotions, and any occasion where substance matters as much as appearance.
