Key Features
- Swiss Made Movement: At its core, the GX1 is powered by a Swiss chronograph movement, meticulously engineered and assembled in Switzerland. This guarantees exceptional accuracy, long-term reliability, and adherence to the rigorous standards that define Swiss horology.
- 45mm 316L Stainless Steel Case: Constructed from premium 316L surgical-grade stainless steel, the case offers superior resistance to corrosion, scratches, and daily wear. Its substantial 45mm diameter provides a confident presence on the wrist, ideal for those who appreciate a bold, masculine timepiece.
- 3D Multi-Layer Dial with Quickset Date: The dial features a sophisticated multi-layer construction that adds dimension and visual interest, enhancing readability and aesthetic appeal. The quickset date mechanism allows for instant calendar adjustments—simply pull the crown to the correct position and set the date without needing to advance the hands through multiple hours.
- Scratch Resistant Sapphire Crystal: Protecting the dial is a sapphire crystal, renowned in watchmaking for its extreme hardness—second only to diamond. This ensures the face remains clear and unblemished, even after exposure to sand, keys, or other abrasive surfaces commonly encountered in daily use.
- 660 Feet (200 Meters) Water Resistance: Engineered for serious aquatic activity, the GX1 is water resistant to 660 feet (200 meters). This makes it suitable for swimming, snorkeling, and recreational diving, offering peace of mind during water-based adventures without compromising structural integrity.
- BGW9 Swiss Luminova: The hands and hour markers are treated with BGW9 Swiss Luminova, a high-performance luminescent compound that charges quickly under any light source and delivers a bright, long-lasting glow in darkness. This ensures clear time reading in low-light conditions, from nighttime navigation to dimly lit environments.
