• Super-Luminova® Indexes & Skeletonised Hands: The dial is enhanced with luminous markers that glow brightly in low-light conditions, ensuring clear visibility during night dives or dimly lit settings. The skeletonised hands further improve legibility while adding a sleek, contemporary touch.
• Dual-Point Indexes at 6 and 12 O’Clock: These specially designed indexes feature two distinct points for enhanced underwater readability, allowing divers to quickly identify key time references even in challenging visibility conditions.
• Rotating Bezel: A functional tool for tracking elapsed time, the bezel rotates unidirectionally—ideal for monitoring dive durations or other timed activities. Its precise markings support safe and accurate interval management.
• Screw-Down Crown & Case Back: For superior protection against moisture and pressure, both the crown and case back are sealed with screw-down mechanisms. The engraved Ocean Star logo on the case back adds a signature detail that reflects authenticity and pride of ownership.
