Key Features

• 500M Water Resistance – Engineered to withstand depths of up to 500 meters, this watch meets the rigorous demands of professional diving. Whether you’re spearfishing, exploring underwater caves, or training at depth, it maintains full functionality and integrity in high-pressure environments.
• Sapphire Crystal – The watch face is protected by a sapphire crystal, one of the most scratch-resistant materials available in watchmaking. This ensures long-term clarity and durability, resisting everyday wear, sand, and saltwater exposure without compromising visibility.
• Automatic Movement (Japanese) – Powered by a highly reliable Japanese automatic movement (Seiko or Miyota), the watch self-winds with the motion of your wrist. This eliminates the need for batteries and ensures consistent performance, backed by decades of proven engineering from trusted manufacturers.
• Strong Japanese Lume – Equipped with high-intensity luminescent material on the hands and markers, the watch offers excellent visibility in low-light and dark underwater conditions. The lume charges quickly and lasts for hours, essential for tracking time during deep or night dives.
• 316L Stainless Steel Construction – The case and bracelet are crafted from surgical-grade 316L stainless steel, known for its corrosion resistance, strength, and hypoallergenic properties. This ensures the watch holds up in saltwater and humid environments while maintaining a polished, professional appearance.
• Bold, Functional Design – Inspired by the intensity of freediving, the watch features a striking, sport-oriented aesthetic with clear legibility and intuitive operation. Every design element serves a purpose, from the unidirectional rotating bezel for tracking dive time to the oversized crown for easy adjustment with gloves.
