Key Features
- Japanese Self-Winding Mechanical Movement – Powered by an intricate gear-driven mechanism with 21 synthetic rubies for reduced friction and enhanced durability. The movement requires no battery, instead relying on natural motion to maintain power, making it ideal for regular wearers who appreciate traditional watchmaking craftsmanship. The rubies, second only to diamond in hardness, ensure smooth operation of the movement’s shaft and contribute to long-term reliability.
- Sapphire Glass Mirror – Features a sapphire crystal lens with a Mohs hardness rating of 9, second only to diamond. This material is nearly three times harder than mineral glass and 20 times more resistant to scratches than acrylic, ensuring long-term clarity and protection against daily wear. Its superior shock resistance and sealing properties make it a hallmark of premium timepieces.
- Ceramic Bezel – The unidirectional rotating bezel is crafted from high-grade ceramic, offering exceptional scratch and fade resistance. Its lustrous finish enhances the watch’s visual appeal while maintaining structural integrity under exposure to sunlight and moisture. Beyond aesthetics, the bezel serves functional purposes such as securing the lens and supporting diving-related timing needs.
- 100-Meter Water Resistance – Tested for reliable performance in water environments up to 100 meters deep. Suitable for swimming, snorkeling, and surface diving in cold water, though not recommended for hot water exposure such as showers or deep-sea diving. This rating ensures dependable performance during recreational water activities.
- Multiple Strap Options – Available with interchangeable nylon rubber straps and stainless steel bracelets in color combinations including blue-red, blue-white-red, black-orange, and solid black. Each strap is designed for comfort, durability, and secure fit during active use. The nylon rubber variants offer breathability and flexibility for workouts, while the stainless steel options provide a polished look suitable for casual or business settings.

Important Notes
When adjusting the time or date, avoid making changes between 9:00 PM and 3:00 AM watch time, as the calendar mechanism is engaged and vulnerable to damage during this period. For models with screw-down crowns, always unscrew counterclockwise before adjustment and reseal clockwise to maintain water resistance. Date changes may occur gradually near midnight—some models complete the transition by 2:00 AM or as late as 4:00 AM—so a delayed jump is normal. Never adjust the crown counterclockwise unless specified, as this can disrupt timekeeping accuracy. Always account for AM/PM when setting the calendar to avoid confusion. The watch is not suitable for hot water environments such as saunas, showers, or high-pressure diving.
