From its 100 Jahre Zeppelin collection, the brand presents this magnificent ED. 1 86181 watch - authentic, elegant, and timeless - destined to earn a rightful place on your wrist through life's finest adventures. Designed for men, it never misses an opportunity to elevate your look and will become your most reliable everyday companion, delivering precise timekeeping. Its round case with a clean aesthetic sits comfortably and pleasantly on the wrist. Crafted in stainless steel, it measures 42 mm in diameter with a thickness of 15 mm, suiting all wrist sizes. It features a satin finish with polished accents that highlight its modern aesthetic. A sapphire crystal covers the dial to protect it against the shocks and scratches of daily wear. A grooved crown sits at 3 o'clock, flanked by two pushers. Together, they allow you to set the time and date at any moment and operate the chronograph. You can admire the fascinating inner workings of the movement at any time through the transparent window in the case back, which is screwed for water resistance of 5 bar.

The Dial

The case of this timepiece showcases a round dial in silver with a semi-matte finish that will deliver an exceptional watch-wearing experience on any occasion. Elevated by black hour markers, it features an analog three-hand display enriched by a date complication shown through a white-background date window between 4 and 5 o'clock, as well as a chronograph function. The chronograph is driven by a slender black central hand totaling 60 seconds and a 30-minute counter at 2 o'clock. Two additional counters are positioned at 6 and 9 o'clock, offering respectively 12-hour and small seconds functions. At the center, two "Breguet" hands in black sweep smoothly, displaying hours and minutes. They point to a minute track graduated with lines and Arabic numerals, punctuated every 5 minutes by gray markers in round and triangular shapes serving as hour references. The outer ring features both a tachymeter and a telemeter. The tachymeter lets you measure the speed of a moving object, while the telemeter calculates the distance of an event based on the speed of sound. Finally, the brand places its name, its logo, and the mention "100 Jahre" below 12 o'clock, and notes the label "Made in Germany" at 6 o'clock.

The Movement

Delivering outstanding performance in every situation, the SW510 caliber brings the watch to life - keeping it running and driving its hands, counters, and date window with exceptional fluidity. This automatic movement of Swiss manufacture is produced by the renowned Sellita manufacture and features a stop-seconds device as well as 27 jewels. Operating at an oscillation frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour (4 Hz), it delivers accurate and reliable reading of hours, minutes, seconds, date, and all chronograph indications. The power reserve is 56 hours.

The Bracelet

This beautiful watch is paired with a charming strap crafted in bovine leather with white stitching, offering a comfortable and pleasant wearing experience in any circumstance. Measuring 21.50 cm in length, it features a dark brown color that makes it easy to pair with any outfit. Elegant, supple, and refined, this strap delicately follows the curves of your wrist, lending you a captivating vintage look. Wear it with dressed-up or casual looks - it secures easily on your wrist with a stainless steel pin buckle, allowing you to put it on smoothly and confidently without any risk of it slipping off. Please note that the lug width is 22 mm.

Water Resistance

This model offers water resistance of 5 atmospheres, or 50 m. It is designed to be strikingly beautiful and turn heads in any setting. That said, its precious nature in no way compromises its ability to withstand everyday elements. You may wear this watch in the shower, though the Ocarat team recommends setting it aside on the edge of the sink to preserve its brilliance and integrity longer. As for swimming and scuba diving, we strongly advise against wearing this watch in those conditions to avoid damage and costly repairs.
