The Peren Nera watch is inspired by the mysterious existence of Devil's Lake within the Nera Gorges in Transylvania. The Swiss-crafted timepiece recalls the Transylvanian location through the color palette and design. The [interesting color of the dial](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ressence-type-8-daniel-engelberg) is meant to resemble the hues of Devil's Lake, while the dial's rim and case bezel represents the cave's shape. The case of the timepiece is crafted with three-tones—a sandblasted base, a matte base and a brushed black PVD coated bezel base—all of which are an ode to the diverse blend of the rough-edged caves and dark lake.

Each Peren Nera watch is [crafted by hand in Switzerland](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/handcrafted-mechanical-timepieces) in accordance to the Neo-Vintage design code. The timepiece uses only premium, high-quality materials such as scratch-resistant sapphire, genuine leather, steel buckles and stainless steel.
