The Middle Child Detrola features the Argonite 705 movement. This high-accuracy quartz movement, which is hand-assembled in Detroit with Swiss and other imported parts, drives the hours, minutes, seconds and calendar aperture function with precision.
The Middle Child Detrola 43mm
Unforgettably Invisible.
Like ultraviolet light, radio waves, and gravity, some things are just invisible. Enter The Middle Child Detrola; a tribute to being unseen but unforgettable. With a translucent TR90 resin case, transparent dial, and semi-transparent clear silicone strap, it’s the watch that reveals inner complexity without begging for attention. The Middle Child is playful yet powerfully built, with a stainless steel core and hand-assembled movement. Understated and impressive, just like its namesake.


Crafted from TR90 resin, a material known for its strength, this 43mm case is anchored by a stainless steel core. The translucent clear case has a glossy finish, and the dial is protected by double-domed K1 crystal, the hardest, most durable mineral crystal.

This watch reveals the inner workings of the movement with a translucent dial, featuring the Shinola Detroit logo as well as the Detrola collection logo. It’s accented with bright white numerals and Super-LumiNova hands.

A semi-transparent clear silicone strap is the perfect complement to this fun watch. Soft and flexible, it offers a comfortable fit and is easy to wear.
Quick Release: Fitted with quick release pins, this strap is easy to change. No tools required. Watch the tutorial here.

The packaging for Detrola is as unique and fun as the style it represents. Long skinny box. Foam insert for protection. Illustrations on the foam and the box sleeve are a fun nod to the watch inside—and they’re also just nice to look at.
