This advanced surface treatment provides superior scratch resistance, anti-rust protection, and hypo-allergenic properties, ideal for sensitive skin.
- Shock Resistance & Anti-Magnetism: Designed to endure physical impacts and resist magnetic interference, this watch maintains accuracy even in high-vibration or electromagnetically active environments, such as industrial worksites or outdoor expeditions.
- Camouflage Ballistic Strap: The strap combines Cordura® ballistic nylon and polyurethane, offering a rugged, lightweight, and weather-resistant design. The camo pattern adds a tactical aesthetic while providing excellent grip and comfort during extended wear.
- Anti-Reflective Sapphire Crystal: The crystal face is crafted from sapphire with an anti-reflective coating, ensuring clear visibility in bright sunlight or low-light conditions without glare interference.
- Super LumiNova Hands and Markers: All time-indicating elements are coated with Super LumiNova, delivering bright, long-lasting luminescence in darkness. This feature enhances readability during night operations or in poorly lit environments.
- Chronograph and 12/24-Hour Time: Equipped with a stopwatch function and dual time format display, this watch supports precise timing and flexible timekeeping for travel or professional use.
