Key Features
- Ceramic Unidirectional Rotating Bezel – Crafted from high-performance ceramic, the bezel resists scratches and fading while providing precise timing for dives. Its unidirectional rotation ensures safety by only allowing the dive time to be extended in case of accidental movement.
- Wave-Design Dial with Luminous Markers – The dial features a dynamic wave motif that reflects the watch’s oceanic heritage. Applied hour indexes are coated with white Super-Luminova® for exceptional visibility in low-light conditions, including underwater environments.
- Swiss Automatic Movement with 80-Hour Power Reserve – The in-house automatic caliber delivers reliable timekeeping without the need for a battery, storing enough energy to run for up to 80 hours on a full wind—ideal for weekend wear without daily adjustments.
- 20-Bar Water Resistance – Rated for depths up to 200 meters (20 bar), this watch is engineered for recreational diving and water sports, with a screw-down crown and case back that enhance sealing and protection against moisture.
- Screw-Down Case Back with Ocean Star Engraving – The solid case back is securely fastened and features the iconic Ocean Star logo, adding a signature touch while maintaining structural integrity and water resistance.
- Day and Date Calendar Display – Practical functionality is provided through a day-date complication, clearly displayed on the dial for quick reference during daily use or travel.
