What is the Sarpaneva Supernova?
The Supernova is a time-only watch from Finnish independent maker Studio Sarpaneva. The current product page describes it as made to order, with hours and minutes and an automatic modified Soprod A10 calibre. The maker’s product description associates the name with a pivotal moment in the history of Sarpaneva Watches, but its “Year 2006” label does not establish a verified release year.
The page attributes this statement to “Stepan Sarpaneva – Year 2006”: “By naming this watch "Supernova," I’m signaling a pivotal moment in Sarpaneva Watches – one where everything changes, and nothing is quite the same again.” Studio Sarpaneva’s Supernova page

Dial choices and made-to-order details
The time-only Supernova is offered with stone dials, including Finnish spectrolite, malachite, lapis lazuli, tiger iron, jasper, pietersite and jade, as well as meteorite options. The manufacturer says each stone dial is unique and confirms the stone for each order, so the appearance can vary from the images shown. Contact the maker to confirm which dial choices are currently available for an order.
How much does the Sarpaneva Supernova cost?
Studio Sarpaneva lists the made-to-order Supernova at €16,000 before taxes. The same product page displays €20,080 with Finland’s listed 25.5% VAT, while noting that taxes are calculated at checkout based on destination. The displayed VAT-inclusive amount therefore should not be treated as a universal delivered price. Confirm the current price, taxes and ordering details on the official Supernova product page.
Supernova vs. Supernova Moonphase
The Supernova Moonphase is a separate model, not simply another dial option for the time-only watch. Both listings describe a modified Soprod A10 family automatic movement and a 40 mm case with 11.2 mm thickness, 42 mm lug-to-lug, sapphire crystals and 5 ATM water resistance. The moonphase version adds a moon-phase display and uses a different dial construction.

|---|---|---|
| Functions | Hours and minutes | Hours, minutes and moon phases |
| Dial description | Unique stone selections, including meteorite options | Five-part steel Northern Stars dial with a gold Moonface |

Strap sizing and fit
The time-only Supernova listing specifies a 22–18 mm strap. That dimension can help when discussing strap options with the maker, but it does not establish that a particular third-party replacement strap will fit. Check the watch’s attachment and taper requirements with Studio Sarpaneva before buying an alternative.
