The Watch

Founded in 2013 by Giuseppe Ammaturo, Spinnaker crafts reliable and robust timepieces that push the boundaries of innovation. Its prestigious models celebrate the brand's creative excellence.

For its collaboration with Ocarat, the manufacture unveils the stunning Piccard Automatic Corsaire Limited Edition Watch SP-5148-11. Released as a limited edition of 75 numbered pieces for Europe, it pays tribute to Jacques Piccard, a Swiss oceanographer, and plunges you into the world of privateers. Once upon a time, in the 16th century, the Atlantic Ocean was opening up to bold new ventures. Through the morning mist, as the sun barely crested the ocean horizon, the ships of mercenary sailors came into view. These were no ordinary pirates - they were proud warriors on a mission to wage war in the name of European monarchies. Their ships were legendary for their speed, their crews fearless. Sails stretched like banners of triumph, catching the wind with grace. Seagulls soared and called around them, like fortune's scouts guiding the way. They were maritime heroes - unmatched strategists, skilled swordsmen and marksmen, ready to defend their homeland. Among them stood famous names: Jean Bart, Robert Surcouf, and François l'Olonnais. Their exploits became legend, their sails snapping in the wind, proudly bearing their nation's colors. On the seas where they reigned supreme, every dawn brought a new adventure and every raised sail was a promise of fortune and valor. And so, like the wind sweeping through the ports and taverns of the world, the legend of the privateers was born.

Every detail of this timepiece brings the adventure to life. It features a round case crafted in polished and brushed stainless steel, measuring 45 mm in diameter, 52 mm in length, and 21 mm in thickness - dimensions perfectly suited to men's wrists. It showcases a grooved, unidirectional bezel with a black insert, engraved over 15 minutes and featuring Arabic numerals every 10 minutes on a 0-to-60 scale. A luminescent inverted triangle sits at 12 o'clock. The dial is covered by a domed sapphire crystal for protection against everyday shocks. The silver crown at 9 o'clock sets the central indicators; its grooved profile ensures an easy grip, measuring 9.50 mm in diameter and embossed with a skull engraving, just like the screw-down caseback which is hydraulic press-stamped. This caseback ensures the watch's water resistance of 55 ATM. Note that this stunning watch is delivered in a magnificent chest-shaped treasure box - a nod to the privateers' plunder.

The Dial

Every detail of this beautiful dial showcases an original design that will elevate your style. It reveals a black background highlighting unique details that define its character. A true ode to the privateer's spirit, its blue luminescent treatment brings the various motifs to life - a skull, a tall ship in the background, and a small privateer symbol in white on the ship's flag. The captivating result amplifies its charm and adds a distinctive edge to the watch. The hours and minutes are delivered by two luminescent hands that sweep fluidly from the center, accompanied by a bloodied saber-shaped seconds hand - a bold tribute to the fierce battles fought by privateers. They point to applied baton indices and a dotted minute track around the perimeter, all coated with Swiss SuperLuminova for night-time readability. The date window at 9 o'clock displays the current date, while the model name appears on the gray rehaut. The brand's name at 12 o'clock completes the signature.

The Movement

This timepiece is powered by a Japanese-made automatic movement - the NH35 caliber by Seiko. This high-performance and reliable mechanism is renowned for its exceptional precision. It features 24 jewels and beats at a frequency of 21,600 vibrations per hour, ensuring accurate display of hours, minutes, seconds, and the date. Its power reserve stands at 41 hours.

The Strap

This stunning watch comes with two straps, each designed to elevate the look of your outfit. Both measure 22 mm in lug width and feature 20 mm wide buckles for a secure fit.

The first is crafted in silver-toned stainless steel to match the rest of the timepiece. It features three rows of brushed and polished links that give it its distinctive character. It hugs the contours of your wrist beautifully, delivering a clean, refined look. Count on its deployant clasp with push-button releases for safe and effortless wear.

The second strap, in brown, is crafted with care and precision. Made from bovine leather, it is refined with topstitching reminiscent of nautical rope work. It seamlessly complements your style, elevating your look with effortless elegance. It is decorated with the privateer symbol, which also appears on its pin buckle - ensuring a perfect fit and a secure hold around the wrist.

Water Resistance

This model offers water resistance of 55 atmospheres, or 550 meters. Whether you're playing at 20,000 leagues under the sea in the pool with your kids or taking on serious professional diving, this watch has you covered. The deep and its creatures had better watch out - you're ready! The Ocarat team wishes you a fantastic underwater adventure, with one final tip: don't touch the pushers or the crown on the way down!
