Summit MK2 – Dawn Til Dusk (Orange Bird)

The Earthen Company Summit MK2 – Dawn Til Dusk (Orange Bird) is a refined evolution of the brand’s alpine‑inspired ceramic sports watch, engineered with upgraded dial architecture, enhanced optical clarity, and improved wearability while preserving the rugged minimalism of the original MK1 series. The MK2 introduces a modern inverted 3‑6‑9 dial layout, replacing numerals with baton markers and applying multi‑layer pad‑printed indices that create pronounced visual depth and superior legibility in high‑glare mountain environments.

A dual‑sided AR‑coated sapphire crystal dramatically reduces reflections, giving the display an almost crystal‑less appearance at certain angles. The 38 mm white ceramic case, measuring 10 mm thick, houses the reliable Miyota 9039 automatic movement, chosen for its robustness and smooth performance in cold alpine conditions. The standout Dawn Til Dusk variant features a fully custom orange‑lume dial, developed in‑house after traditional suppliers were unable to produce the vivid hue Earthen envisioned; the result is a dial that glows with warm sunset tones at night and displays a subtle salmon tint in daylight. Orange accents on the crown, inner gasket, and included FKM rubber straps reinforce the dawn‑to‑dusk theme, with each MK2 model shipping with two colour‑coordinated straps for improved durability and comfort.

The ceramic case and bezel, oversized glove‑friendly crown, signature 6 o’clock skier‑descent graphic, and scratch‑resistant construction make the MK2 a purpose‑built mountain companion, while its refined proportions and upgraded finishing ensure everyday versatility. Produced in limited quantities for quality control, the Dawn Til Dusk MK2 embodies Earthen Company’s mission to democratise high‑performance ceramic watchmaking—capturing the spirit of alpine adventure from first light to last light.
