Uni-directional turning dive bezel with green colored luminous markings covered with a highly scratch resistant Sapphire Crystal cap which protects it from scratches & nicks. Mechanical Depth Gauge: The X Fathoms features a metallic membrane that senses water pressure changes which then translates those changes into an accurate depth reading via a complex mechanism. The water makes contact with the membrane through a series of grille opening in the watch case. All depth related indications in orange & blue colored luminous paint. Depth indicator 0-15 meters is indicated on the dial perimeter by blue luminous filled arrow-head hand. This measurement is calibrated to an accuracy of up to 30cm. This reading is a more calibrated & accurate measurement than the 0-90m reading.

Small hand with red rectangle top will record the max depth of your dive. The covered/protected button at the 8 o'clock position resets the maximum recorded depth hand. Fitted with an injected rubber strap which is comprised of 14 articulated components to ensure a perfect fit on the wrist yet to still allow water to seep in under the watch in order to make contact with the depth gauge membrane.

The energy produced from the wound spring drives the movement functions. An automatic watch has a weighted rotor mounted on a pivot to the back of the movement, and the rotor is connect to the mainspring through a series of gears. The natural motion of the wearers wrist will cause the rotor to spin, which in turn will automatically wind the mainspring. Please note: An automatic winding watch which has completely wound-down or is at the end of its power reserve requires manual winding. Manually winding an automatic watch ensures that the watch is at full power-reserve when first worn, and as long as the watch is in motion thereafter it will remain fully wound, ensuring that when the watch is removed it will run the specificed power-reserve duration.
