Key Features

• Carbon Core Guard Structure: Reinforced with carbon fiber, this internal framework enhances shock resistance by absorbing and dispersing impact energy. It protects the watch’s internal components from drops, bumps, and daily wear, ensuring long-term reliability in demanding conditions—whether you’re on a construction site, hiking rugged terrain, or simply navigating a busy commute.
• Eco-Friendly CORDURA® Nylon Band: The cloth strap is crafted from sustainable CORDURA® Eco Fabric, which incorporates recycled nylon fibers. This material resists abrasion, tearing, and fading, maintaining its sleek black appearance even after extended use. By choosing this watch, you’re supporting environmentally responsible manufacturing without compromising on toughness or comfort.
• 200-Meter Water Resistance: Engineered for aquatic environments, this watch can withstand depths up to 200 meters. It’s suitable for swimming, snorkeling, and other water-based activities, making it a practical choice for beach trips, pool sessions, or rainy-day commutes. The secure screw-down crown and reinforced case design help maintain water integrity under pressure.
• Analog-Digital Dual Display: Combines traditional analog hands (hour and minute) with a crisp digital screen that shows seconds, date, time zone data, and more. The analog hands move every 20 seconds for smooth, precise tracking, while the digital display provides instant access to additional information. The hand shift function temporarily moves the analog hands aside, giving you an unobstructed view of the digital screen—ideal for checking stopwatch or timer data at a glance.
• Super Illuminator LED Lighting: Dual LED lights ensure visibility in low-light conditions. One illuminates the analog face with even, bright light, while the other backlights the digital display. Both use Super Illuminator technology and offer selectable durations of 1.5 or 3 seconds, with an afterglow effect that lingers briefly for added clarity. Whether you’re reading the time at night or checking data during a dimly lit workout, the lighting system delivers consistent performance.
• Advanced Timekeeping Functions: Stay organized with world time across 31 time zones, covering 48 major cities and coordinated universal time. The daylight saving on/off feature adjusts automatically, while the 1/100-second stopwatch tracks split and lap times with precision. A countdown timer helps manage workouts or timed tasks, and five daily alarms ensure you never miss an important reminder. The hourly time signal adds an extra layer of punctuality.
• Full Auto-Calendar & Mute Feature: Pre-programmed to the year 2099, the calendar eliminates the need for manual date adjustments, even accounting for leap years. The mute function allows you to disable button operation tones—perfect for meetings, lectures, or quiet environments where discretion is key. Switch between 12-hour and 24-hour formats to match your preference.
