“DISCOVERY OUR INSPIRATION”

Red is one of the strongest colors, it’s energy, it has a power with the eye. The highlight of crimson red on anthracite grey creates ambiences that encourage us to focus, dwell time on the present, a moment, this second. Just like the red safelight that illuminates the darkroom, stabilizes the image print process.

BLACK OUT

“The Monochrome design”

“95% of the ocean unmapped, more is known about the moon's surface than the ocean depths.” said aquatic filmmaker Fabien Cousteau, grandson of ocean diving pioneer Jacque Cousteau. We know more about outer space than our own oceans; we have better maps of Mars and Venus than the seabed. We chose this striking black colour to create contrast between the gleaming ceramic bezel and the sand-blasted surface of the case. The strap is associated with darkness, mystery, and the unknown. Black is not only sophisticated but has the power to arouse deep emotions and curiosities, just like the mysterious places in the deep blue sea.

RED IS ONE OF
THE STRONGEST COLORS

AQUATIC GRADIENCE

“WHERE LIGHT MEETS THE SEA,
MAGIC AND WONDER WILL FOLLOW”

The blue shades, triangles, circles, rectangular dial markers and broad hour and minute hands are not only designed for aesthetics but from optimum visibility in dark environments. They enable instant and reliable reading, which is essential to prevent any risk of confusion.
