In the modern watch industry, I think we can all agree there's a lot of cutting and pasting when it comes to the majority of watch designs. But now and then, a watch comes a long that defies almost every established norm, with the Mühle Glashütte SAR Rescue-Timer being a great example of a brand pushing the envelope. In this video, I'll take a look at the newest variant of the SAR Rescue-Timer, now equipped with a fully lumed primary dial surface.

Ugly? No, it's beautiful in its symmetry, its stark contrast, and its rugged style. I love that it looks almost indestructible. I love how unique it is. The price is the only reason I haven't bought one yet, not because it's unreasonable but just that I've got other priorities. I do think it will find itself in my collection one day.
Everything about this watch design seems purpose-built and very well thought-out. Also, it's so unique, I would almost guarantee that people will ask, "What is that?"
My favorite vids are when you review unique watches that I would'nt see on UA-cam let alone in the wild. As a U50 fan, definitely appreciate this watch.
Hi Teddy. Thanks for highlighting Muhle again, this model is also my radar , (if you'll excuse the pun!) . I am fortunate to already own their Limited Edition, Bronze Yacht timer from around 3 yrs ago. I absoulutely love it and would never sell it. IMHO they are really doing their own thing and a unique style about them - authentic German design, superb build quality and an interesting history too. Thanks again.
Thank you for this
This is honestly the first watch to seriously turn my head since getting a U1
These videos are convincing me to go with a German watch brand as my first "Luxury" watch. Thanks for the video, superb quality and easy for me to follow along/read.
They are paid reviews
@@anarchyseeds4406 How did you come up with that idea? 😂
@@anarchyseeds4406 they are not paid, but he sells the watches so he is basically advertising his store.
They are definitely more about function it would seem. I really like the one in this video as well.
@@STEVEARABIA1 i am thinking of buying a "Dekla" Pilot's watch with their hardened case offering, it's within budget and the servicing costs would be manageable 🙂
Thoroughly enjoy your videos and happy to have been able to make a purchase (SAR Rescue timer) through your site. I am a big fan of the German brands too. Keep up the good work.
I am a love it guy. This is an unapologetically functional timepiece executed to a remarkable standard. That isn't as common as it once was and it is good to see.
Great video Teddy! I purchased the original black dial variant from your store several months ago and I love it. This watch is overbuilt to say the least, and is a regular in my rotation. The only problem with the watch is concerning the cyclops. As you can see in the video the cyclops appears to have a chip/reflection within. You can see it in every shot, the hot white mark at the cyclops that seems to move depending on the camera angle. I contacted your Customer Service representative (I'm sorry his name escapes me as does the representative from Muhle) who contacted Mulhe then put me in touch with a Muhle representative who checked their stock and advised me that unbeknownst to Muhle this is an inherent problem with the size of the crystal in relation to the cyclops.
All in all it is still one of my favorite watches.
This is my daily watch since more than ten years. I still enjoy and appreciate it every day! The watch fits to every occasion and even after ten years the wear and tear is minor. My father worked for the german SAR for almost 20 years and this watch always reminds me of him.
A lot of value for the price as well.
I love it. Adore it. And it’s nice to see a company use some creativity instead of the same ole boring (rolex). Push that envelope!
Great review! Just bought this one. It is amazing. Fits my wrist well......so comfortable. Unusual and stunning good looks.
Ive been window shopping this on Chrono, Thank you for this video the extra perspectives of it being worn and displayed the height made me hesitant from a spec sheet stand point. This is going to help me in my decision for my next watch. Cheers
Honestly I'd be surprised to hear anyone call it "ugly." It's purely utilitarian and in that sense it's a beautiful piece of engineering. Would love to own, but for the price there are others I would consider first, but maybe one day?
I have the original SAR rescue with the black dial. I fell in love the the look of the watch. It's one of my favorite watches in my collection
Great watch and i am willing of buying one but the rubber bezel lets me stop . As i have seen few SAR with torn rubber bezel from daily use.. so can this rubber bezel be easily replaced?
Love the simple looking design and durability
This is my first grail watch... buying one this summer to kick off my collection... I read Simon Winchester's "the perfectionists" and it got me hooked on watches
I think it’s a watch worth having in one’s collection. I really like the face lume (different). Great review.
I have the original black dial SAR Rescue-Timer since 2005. I have found the watch comfortable to wear and obviously provides easy to read in both daylight and night. I appreciate the review of this watch and brand. Great work.
How has the rubber been holding up over all these years?
@@mayorofrlyeh8042 The color has not changed. From arms length distance, looks brand new. There is a scratch on the rubber right above the stem. Not bad for the age.
@@timothycollins1959 Thanks a bunch for the answer, that is really helpful as I am seriously considering getting one at the moment.
@@timothycollins1959 scratch or cut ? I am afraid of the rubber got cut or dent , as i have seen few with cuts in the rubber bezel ...
@@amrashraf9559 It resembles a minor paper cut you get on your finger, you might consider it a scratch. Actually unnoticeable unless you know where its located.
I absolutely love the look of that watch!!
This I think will be my next watch, it's really cool, different, the styling is unique and I love that.
Fantastic piece. Love its design.
Purchased one recently and like it more and more every day. One gripe: Swapping between the bracelet and the rubber strap is impractical. One jeweler got nervous and basically refused to go forward with the job. Then I took it to a watch repair shop and the guys said it would take such a long time I would need to book an appointment. So even though I have a strap, it may never get used. Kind of a shame. I have the black strap but a red one is also available. It would be a blast to alternate between the three.
This was my plan also. Thanks for mentioning it.
Wow! Love it! Unique design.
A great watch from a very underrated company, you can see how much thought has went into the design.
Yep and this is cause they really asked the operating rescue teams what their watch has to be like. Result: a real tool watch that is used for what it’s made for 24/7/365 in all weather conditions
Makes me want to look at Mulhe Glashutte more. Been a big sinn fan for a while. Loving Seiko and citizen too, especially their high end quartz offerings.
I am crazy in love with this watch from the moment I saw this new full lumed version. I will get one with the rubber strap though.
Loved video.definitely one I pick up sometime this winter
I think it's beautiful. Can you make a video covering the toughest watches out there? Would really be helpful when in the office and working in server rooms, where my luxury timepieces are prone to get scratched. That would make for a fun video. Cheers.
Actually, I love those lumen variant watches. Using it often in a places with limited light, I appreciate easy reading of the actual time. It seems to me it's quite underappreciated, but good luminosity is very important when it comes for me to pick a watch.
I have the original Muhle Terrasport III, and the quality is exceptional. It looks like a Fliegler and many have commented on the watch. It is elegant and robust. The blued screws, and highly finished rotor make the glass back side as nice as the front. Highly recommended watchmaker.
So, so, so cool! Fantastic piece.
Great brand, so underrated ! Still in love with my 29er
I absolutely love the look of this watch.
Fantastic review Teddy! A very unique designed watched in this market of same same watches. Peter Kotsa UA-cam review is a must watch review also. Love it.
It's a very cool tool watch , so much value with German watchmaking.
I love this watch, the design is amazing and looks like it will go the distance.
Have ordered on the back of this review - a gem of a watch to accidentally come across - many thanks
Great unsung brand with a lot of history. I used to own the 29er which I feel is a great alternative to the Omega Aqua Terra
Great Review & great Watch. One of the best watches on your arm. Looks awesome, even on small wrists. I find the white one shown in the video even better and more beautiful than the original black one. Great idea of a great watch. Thank you Teddy 👌💪👍❗
This is the ultimate tool watch, best beater you could get, bar the price, awesome video, thanks Teddy!!!!
Indeed. The very definition of Tool Watch.
There is a Muehle AD in my city and I can tell you they make solid watches, having seen them up close.
I don’t know how you do Teddy! You make a watch that would not be on most peoples radar something so incredibly interesting! Absolutely love your videos. Wishing you continued success !!
I love this watch! I’m definitely checking it out!
i have never heard of this make before but i have fallen in love with this watch, its just fantastic looking and useful, sadly i'll never be able to afford one of them, but one can only dream
You can afford one. Just have the discipline to start saving a a buck or two every single day. Before you know it, you'll have this or whatever watch you want on your wrist.
I was completely turned off when I first saw this watch design, it is now growing on me, especially since knowing the background on the design, might be on my future shopping list going forward.
I only like tool watches, usually dive watches as they are a tool watch by definition, but on occasions there's other tool watches I like. That's a fun watch too, and tool watch to be sure.
I bought this watch 1 one ago with the SAR printed strap. The strap that connects the clasp is glued but they make it look stitched. Beautiful and cool-looking watch but they went cheap on the strap. I've worn it maybe 35 times and the glued area has come apart but is a beautiful watch. I love the watch I hope they replace my strap. Sucks I can't wear it because of the strap. The lume is super bright also!
Teddy I bought mine here in Australia just on 2 months ago, albeit the dark dial version & I love it! Aesthetically it’s just so rugged & built for purpose. Not that it will do much SAR work inland where I live!💪🏼🤣 It has become one of my favourites in my collection! Another good review. 👍🏼🇦🇺😎
Hey Andrew, where in oz did you buy your Muhle and can you recommend them, I'm in WA and am looking to buy one too.
@@marcusrawlinson5024 Mate I got mine through Define Watches. I think based in Melbourne & or Sydney? Actually it was kinda via Peter Kotsa’s channel. He reviewed this watch & coincidentally I was in the verge of buying it! Check out his review!👍🏻
@@andrewd7586 Thanks Andrew, I hope you're enjoying your SAR, of course you are, a great watch. I'm recently retired so this watch would be a considerable purchase but I WANT one.
@@marcusrawlinson5024 Well Marcus, if retirement isn’t a good enough excuse to spoil yourself…what is?🤣👍🏻 I’m definitely not disappointed at all with my SAR!😎
@@andrewd7586 they are based in Noosa.. I bought one 4 years ago from them.
Love this watch! Love the full lumen face!
Love it! That’s one watch which fits my lifestyle!
wow you mentioned the Tag Heuer night diver! That was my first "good" watch back when i was around 16 or 17 years old...i remember saving up the $750 or so to buy it. i still have it! This SAR is among the top in my list to get
Looks mad❗🔥♥️🙌 Thanks Teddy!
I really like this watch I was a surfer was use a Timex I’ve also seen on the subject titanium watches that are very expensive and I haven’t seen them on her channel and I can’t find it again but thank you
I have one of those. Great watch!
I’ve been wanting this watch for awhile.
beautiful backlight
Great Video, as always!
I like the watch. Nice video and thanks for posting it.
This watch is almost everything I’d want in a watch. I love it.
I have been looking at this watch as a future daily wear tool watch, love the functional form. The quality of the crystal and date lens puts some other higher priced brands to shame.
Agreed. The Rolex Cyclops is a real eye sore but Glasshütte implementation is incredible.
why do I feel like buying this immediately! you are quite a salesman as well :-)
I have a oris rega . I could see this as a nice addition to my collection .
I love it I'll make it my Christmas present..
Love this watch!
I’m not sure if someone else said it, but it really gives me the Tudor North Flag vibes, I was looking at getting a Submariner come six months but as watch collector who likes unique pieces, I might just buy five of these
Fantastic watch!
Hi teddy! Loving the videos, keep up the good work!
And thank you for all the watch info we get on your Chanel. Question: what is the triangle with the 2 dots on the 12 hour of the dial mean? I seeing it in a lot Swiss and german watches. Any special significance?
Shoutouts from California.
Hmm.. I have recently been considering getting a Longines master collection blue moonphase L29094920, But this watch is speaking to me. I don't know why, but it's pretty neat. At roughly the same price as the Longines, I'm going to have to consider this.
I am surprised how well the date at 4 o'clock works when then crown is in the same position. Really attractive.
Very cool. I am tempted, but the round case might be a bit too round for me. I think if I can get it on wrist it will convince me easily
Hi, I was already in love after you reviewed the traditional black dial. Checking both versions at my local dealer I personally enjoyed this lumed dial with the red second hand tip and am waiting since 3 months to get it on the rubber band....thx for the review which makes me looking forward even more to the delivery....
Just a point on your intro: remembering way back to my College German class, the German “North Sea” is the Baltic Sea.
Love it. I really love watches that look like nothing else, and love tool watches. I'd have this over any Rolex or AP anytime.
I don’t hate it and lean towards liking it. Thanks for sharing.
These are very well regarded.
I had a 2008 MG SAR and it fogged first time in the water. Totally unacceptable for the price I paid and its reputation. I went back to my Tauchmeister 1937 Germany T0334 and have never had a single issue. Btw, I'm new to your channel and I really like it. You bring a lot to the table for watch enthusiasts and collectors. Subbed!
Fantastic watch.
Damn it! Now I want one! It is a pretty cool designed watch.
Love it. Tool watch. Specific purpose. I want.
Well thought out functionality is never ugly.
I love it, very nice watch
This watch is great. Thanks for sharing it. It's very "form follows function". No nonsense, and very aesthetically pleasing because if it! I'd wear it. It's got a panther tank appeal to it. I really like that it does not have a silly numbered bezel like a fake dive watch. There's no crap here. btw I am an industrial designer - I design OEM vehicle exteriors (Ford).
I very much agree about the bezel, silly fashion.
Great watch and i am willing of buying one but the rubber bezel lets me stop . As i have seen few SAR with torn rubber bezel from daily use.. so can this rubber bezel be easily replaced?
@@amrashraf9559 Yes it can ne replaced I also asked that when I bought my model today and I can tell you I absolutely love it👍
@@seppdepp8145 i bought mine today
I like it 👌
@@amrashraf9559 Concrats hope you will have a lot of fun with it👍
Really nice selvage denim jacket!
It's cool. Looks very smooth for 100 atm. Thx.
I like the older black dial version. Bracelet looks a little thick I prefer bracelets that taper , like the dial and rubber bezel though , overall a nice watch and as usual a great review .
I really want one of these.
Yeees, dood! A thousand years of German humor in one watch 😲!
That black bezel has some North Flag vibes. Cool watch.
Now THIS is a true diver's watch! Once, in Mexico while snorkeling, our boat captain was literally surrounded by barracudas and almost attacked by them, due in large part to the 'shiny' watch he had on (as per him). Once back onboard he became so mad at himself that he flung the watch into the water never to be seen again. So I guess having a dive watch that doesn't shimmer in the water is a definite quality of a great dive watch.
That is not a true dive watch. No unidirectional bezel and only rated for 100 meters. Of coarse, most swimmers would find it to be a nice time piece for snorkeling. I like it too and would wear it when hanging out around the water.
@William Albert 100 ATM is a 1000m ATM stands for atmosphere
Love it!
I have this on my list!!!
Great watch. Not a German Watch fan but this is great watch
Hey Teddy will you ever review a few Meistersinger in the future ? I honestly think this brand needs more recognition.
That watch would look great in black.
The gold version looks epic.
Reminds me of the Rolex Explorer. Great, and underrated Brand! 👏🏼
I think its outstanding!
I’ve seen this watch before and absolutely LOVE it! I’m considering buying one and am pretty torn between the traditional black dial or this one, and bracelet or rubber strap. I’m leaning toward black dial, rubber strap. I’m also glad to hear you don’t think the rubber bezel will get dinged up too bad, and that it’s replaceable if it does.
Teddy did a video on the black dial variant which was instrumental in convincing me to purchase this piece. I did buy the black dial version on the rubber strap … and must say it is one of my most favorite watches in my collection. I’m a huge fan of German-made watches, having several Sinn (U1-SE & U50 included), Damasko, Laco & Stowa, among others.
The SAR does wear smaller on the wrist as Teddy suggests, but it is a substantial presence even with the rubber strap. The clasp on the rubber strap is extremely well built and has a finish/color similar to the case (almost titanium-like). The rubber strap is one that you’ll need to cut for size … even with my smaller 6.75-in wrist, there was more I could have cut. It’s an amazing watch - I’ll be reducing my collection soon to make more room to wear this one more frequently.
@@fabiodefreitas6009 Thanks for the info man, I appreciate it. I have a Sinn as well (556i), which is pretty much my everyday watch right now. Was actually considering buying a U50, but then this video reminded me this watch was out there. Can’t go wrong either way I guess.
Great watch and i am willing of buying one but the rubber bezel lets me stop . As i have seen few SAR with torn rubber bezel from daily use.. so can this rubber bezel be easily replaced?
@@amrashraf9559 As much as I would like to wear this watch on a daily basis, I have too many others that would be jealous of the wrist time. Because it’s not a daily wear, I have had no issues with the rubber bezel at all - it still looks brand new. I have heard and read other times that the bezel is replaceable. Have you tried contacting your authorized dealer or Muhle directly?
@@fabiodefreitas6009 unfortunately in my country there is no retailer for muhle
I will buy this watch while a trip in Munich..
And wish to be able to buy a spare rubber bezel while buying the watch
This is a fantastic watch. I can't really see why someone would say it's ugly, to be honest. It's so simple and functional that it leaves no room to be ugly
I really like it. Maybe once my stock portfolio recovers I’ll be looking to get one… from you of course!
Don’t want it, but love it!
