Key Features
- Swiss-Made Chronograph Movement: Engineered in Switzerland, the GX1 features a high-precision chronograph mechanism that ensures accurate timekeeping and stopwatch functionality, meeting the exacting standards of Swiss watchmaking tradition. This movement supports split-second timing for activities requiring precision, such as motorsports, training sessions, or technical tasks.
- 45mm 316L Stainless Steel Case: Constructed from premium 316L surgical-grade stainless steel, the case offers exceptional corrosion resistance and long-term durability. Known for its strength and hypoallergenic properties, 316L steel maintains its polished finish even in harsh environments, resisting tarnish and wear from daily exposure.
- 3D Multi-Layer Dial with Quickset Date: The dial features a dynamic multi-layer construction that adds depth and visual interest, creating a sophisticated, three-dimensional appearance. The quickset date function allows for easy and rapid adjustment of the date display without needing to cycle through multiple time zones or advance the time continuously—ideal for frequent travelers or those managing time-sensitive schedules.
- Scratch-Resistant Sapphire Crystal: A genuine sapphire crystal protects the dial, providing superior resistance to scratches and impacts compared to standard mineral or acrylic glass. This ensures the watch face remains clear and unblemished over time, even with regular wear in active or industrial settings.
- 660 Feet (200 Meters) Water Resistance: Rated for depths up to 660 feet, the GX1 is suitable for swimming, snorkeling, and recreational diving. Its robust sealing system protects internal components from water intrusion, making it a reliable companion for aquatic activities and everyday exposure to moisture.
- BGW9 Swiss Luminova Lume: Equipped with BGW9-grade Swiss Luminova on the hands and hour markers, the watch delivers bright, long-lasting glow in low-light conditions. This high-performance luminescent material ensures excellent visibility during night operations, dimly lit environments, or emergency situations, enhancing both safety and functionality.
