The satin-finished case of this watch, fashioned from 316L stainless steel, boasts polished details on the lugs and spans a diameter of 42.00mm from 7H to 2H. The case is 15.70mm thick, and the lugs expand 49.50mm in length. Depths of up to 200m or 660ft can be secured by a screw-down crown of the same material. Its burgundy aluminium bezel insert allows for 5 minute readings via a unidirectional dual jack-hammer-click rotating bezel. A double-curved box type sapphire crystal is triple-coated, providing clear legibility.

The Case Back

The case back is designed in the style of a ships port window which is fitted with a double curved sapphire crystal with three layers of anti-reflective coating through which the Swiss made movement with its bell diving helmet rotor. The modified 11 ½ ligne calibre VB - 24A automatic movement features 26 jewels, perlage and blued screws. Other highlights include a Glucydur balance, an Anachron balance spring and a Nivaflex 1 mainspring. The balance has a frequency of 28,800 bph and features a 38-hour power reserve and a skeletonised, decorated rotor. The movement is suspended in a ring of mu-metal which helps protect it from excessive magnetic forces.
