Hammerhead Bronze LJ-HB-002 wall clock

The Watch

Since its early days in the 1960s, Le Jour has been crafting professional timepieces that embody the very best of Swiss watchmaking. Every model is built from premium materials with advanced features - and the Hammerhead Bronze LJ-HB-002 is no exception. Designed for true enthusiasts, its modern, refined style sets it apart. Inspired by the original Hammerhead launched in 2020, this new version brings improvements in design, materials, and dimensions. Its barrel-shaped case is crafted from CuSn8 bronze, celebrated for its unique patina that develops beautifully over time. The brushed and polished finishes make a statement, and the watch's striking character is sure to add a distinctive touch to any look. With a 39 mm diameter, a lug-to-lug length of 45 mm, and a 13 mm thickness, it's perfectly sized for men's wrists. The unidirectional, knurled bezel features a green ceramic insert decorated with white triangles. The dial is shielded by a domed, anti-reflective sapphire crystal that offers excellent protection and superb legibility. At 3 o'clock, a screw-down crown handles indicator adjustments, its knurled profile ensuring easy grip. Finally, the screw-down caseback, engraved with a hammerhead shark motif, ensures water resistance to 20 ATM.

The Dial

The dial is a showcase of the brand's expertise. Its green base is elevated by a mix of sunray and brushed finishing, sending dazzling reflections dancing across your wrist with every movement. For clear timekeeping in low light, all markers are coated with Swiss Super-LumiNova BGW9 - including the twelve bold triangular and Arabic numeral indices. Two large hands track the hours and minutes, while a seconds hand sweeps the dial. The date window at 3 o'clock displays the day of the month, and the two-tone chapter ring carries a minute track. The brand name at 12 o'clock completes the signature look.

The Movement

This outstanding timepiece is powered by a Swiss-made automatic movement - specifically the Sellita SW200 caliber, renowned for its robustness and performance. Fitted with 26 jewels, it drives the hands and date window with precision. Its oscillation frequency is 28,800 vph, and it delivers a power reserve of 38 hours.

The Strap

This model's appeal is enhanced by a green silicone strap. Flexible yet refined, it sits beautifully on the wrist. Its color is perfect for both urban and sporty looks - count on its lightness and elegance to complement any outfit. The lug width measures 18 mm and it fastens with a pin buckle.

Water Resistance

With a water resistance of 20 atmospheres - equivalent to 200 meters - this model earns the title of true dive watch. Our watchmaking experts agree: while it handles showers, baths, lap swimming, freediving, and recreational scuba with ease, it is not rated for extreme deep-sea diving where pressure would compromise its seals. For professional divers pushing serious depth limits, we recommend models rated at 30 atmospheres or more. We also advise against operating the pushers or crown while submerged, to maintain a perfect seal.
