Now it reappears in a reimagined configuration, richer, sharper, and more sophisticated. By introducing a subtle third colour into the Tuxedo layout, Serica achieves even greater depth and contrast, reaffirming its commitment to modern classicism.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Serica-Ref-6190-TXD-Tuxedo-Dial-7.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-294197 lazy-images\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Serica-Ref-6190-TXD-Tuxedo-Dial-7.jpg\"  data-\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The new Serica Ref. 6190 TXD is made from 316L stainless steel and retains the compact, ergonomic dimensions <a href=\"https:\/\/monochrome-watches.com\/new-2024-serica-6190-chronometre-msl-field-watch-hands-on-review-specs-price\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">that define the 6190 line<\/a>: 37.7mm in diameter, 10.4mm thick (crystal included), and 46.5mm lug-to-lug. Despite its dressier appearance, the watch with the characterful twisted lugs and sculpted bezel remains as rugged as ever: water-resistant to 200 metres, protected by a double-domed sapphire crystal with internal anti-reflective coating.<\/p>\n<p>The enamel-like Tuxedo dial, with glossy black and silver-toned sectors accented by a soft third hue, balances legibility with vintage charm. The hand-applied hour markers are filled with Super-LumiNova C3, and the brushed hands add texture and refinement. The look is equal parts field watch and formal companion.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Serica-Ref-6190-TXD-Tuxedo-Dial-3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-294193 lazy-images\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Serica-Ref-6190-TXD-Tuxedo-Dial-3.jpg\"  data-\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The watch is powered by the automatic Soprod M100, a chronometer-certified (COSC) calibre operating at 28,800 vibrations\/hour with a 42-hour power reserve.
