🌊 What Makes This Case Exceptional
💪 Extreme Performance
This isn’t just a watch case — it’s a platform built for survival.
With 100ATM / 1000 m (3280 ft) water resistance, a sapphire crystal, and a tactile bezel, it’s engineered to perform in arctic cold, tropical humidity, and deep-sea pressure alike.
Unlike most military diver designs with 20 mm straps, this case accepts a 24 mm NATO strap for superior wrist stability in high-stress or high-impact conditions.
🛠 Helium Escape Valve — A Deep-Dive Essential
During saturation dives, microscopic helium molecules can enter the case under pressure. As the diver ascends, internal pressure builds — risking crystal failure.
This case’s automatic helium valve safely vents that pressure during decompression, keeping your timepiece intact and dive-ready.
🧪 Why Helium Matters
Professional divers often breathe helium-oxygen mixtures at depth to avoid nitrogen narcosis. The trade-off is helium infiltration — and without a proper escape valve, pressure damage is inevitable.
That’s why this feature is standard in every true professional-grade dive watch.

🔧 Why Choose PVD Coating?
PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) isn’t paint — it’s a molecular bond.
Used in military specifications worldwide, it won’t chip, fade, or corrode, offering exceptional abrasion resistance and a stealth-ready matte black finish that outlasts traditional coatings.
💎 Why Sapphire Crystal?
Sapphire is the hardest and most resilient crystal used in watchmaking — second only to diamond.
It’s scratch-proof, shatter-resistant, and thermally stable. Over 90% of crystal failures occur in mineral glass, not sapphire.
Built for the Harshest Realities. Trusted by Professionals.
From special forces to saturation divers, this case has the pedigree to handle real-world missions — and the polish to look at home anywhere from the ocean floor to the boardroom.
When your gear matters, build something that lasts.
