The Movement

At the heart of this model beats a Swiss solar movement with caliber AL-140. This mechanism stands out for its precision and efficiency, harnessing light to power the watch and delivering an impressive power reserve of 10 months. This renewable energy system eliminates the need for frequent battery replacements, making it both eco-friendly and highly convenient for the wearer. The movement provides hours, minutes, seconds, and date functions, reflecting its Swiss heritage through precision and reliability.

The Strap

The strap on this stunning watch is crafted in navy blue rubber, chosen for both its durability and exceptional comfort. It conforms to the wrist thanks to a 15 mm lug width, ensuring a secure and comfortable fit for extended wear. The pin buckle was selected for its simplicity and reliability, blending classic style with modern practicality. The embossed finish adds an appealing texture to the overall design, perfectly complementing the watch's contemporary, sporty aesthetic.

Water Resistance

With water resistance to 10 ATM, this watch is fully equipped to withstand water up to 100 meters, making it well-suited for everyday aquatic activities such as swimming or casual snorkeling. It is not intended, however, for serious scuba diving. The screw-down caseback reinforces the water-resistance seal, ensuring the inner mechanism is thoroughly protected against water and other elements.
