Sarpaneva Midnight Sun

Reading Time: 2 minutes

In the mystical North, the ceaseless summer sun bathes the land in everlasting glare. The boundaries between day and night melt away, leaving the inhabitants forever entangled in the riddle of time. Is it day or night, reality or a dream? – Sarpaneva Midnight Sun

A peculiar device emerged as their salvation – a watch with a 24hour hand, providing an anchor for those trapped in the maddening dance of endless light.

Intoxicated by this bewildering cycle, the renowned F1 driver and northern aficionado, Valtteri Bottas, was compelled to contribute to the design of Sarpaneva Midnight Sun.
