Black mother-of-pearl dial
The inside of the black butterfly shell is thinly sliced and processed into a dial. The color base is black, which has shades of black, and is characterized by a unique luster that shines in iridescent colors depending on the amount of light. The fantastic nuances expressed by the sea-derived black butterfly shell evoke the mystique of the deep sea ruled by Neptune, the god of the sea, and add a stylish impression to the simple three-needle design. Since each one is a natural material with a different pattern, you can enjoy it as a one-of-a-kind item.
A diver’s watch in the shape of a sea god
The sturdy and robust case, screw-down crown and 3 mm thick sapphire crystal windshield ensure high water resistance of 100 bar / 1,000 metres. The caseback is engraved with Neptune, the god of the sea, embodying the brand concept of “THE WATER CHAMPION”.
Super-LumiNova Grade X1
Hands and indexes are coated with luminescent paint Super-LumiNova. Super-LumiNova has three ranks: Standard, Grade A, and Grade X1, and this model uses the highest rank, Grade X1. Compared to the standard, it boasts up to 1.6 times the amount of light emitted even after 2 hours, and is excellent in dark places such as at night and underwater.
Auto Helium Escape Valve
Equipped with an auto helium escape valve at 9 o’clock in the case. Helium gas that has entered the watch during saturation diving is automatically discharged, and plays a role in preventing the watch from rupturing due to the difference in pressure between inside and outside. It is a detail that allows you to visually enjoy the charm of a diver’s watch.
316L stainless steel
The case and bracelet are made of 316L stainless steel, which is rust-resistant and gentle on the skin, which is also used in medical instruments. The hairline finish, which features an elongated streak pattern, and the mirror finish, which provides a mirror-like luster, are combined to create a calm and luxurious feel.
Diving Bezel
High-tech ceramic inserts on the bezel surface. It has the same high hardness as sapphire, has excellent scratch and corrosion resistance, and maintains the aesthetics of the watch for a long time. Operability is improved by adding small bumps to the sides. In consideration of the risk of overestimating the remaining oxygen level due to incorrect operation during diving, it is designed to prevent unidirectional rotation.

About Edox
THE WATER CHAMPION
◆THE WATER CHAMPION
A pocket watch designed and made by the excellent watchmaker Christian Ljufli = Fleury himself to celebrate his wife’s birthday. Moved by the beauty of this gift, his wife encouraged him to start a watch brand, and in 1884 he founded Edox in Biel/Bienne, Switzerland. The brand name is derived from an ancient Greek word meaning “time”, and the brand emblem, the hourglass mark, symbolizes “timelessness”. In 2024, we will celebrate our 140th anniversary.
At the time of its founding, the company made a name for itself with pocket watches, but shifted to manufacturing wristwatches in the 1950s. We have developed the world’s first patented waterproof mechanism, and have pursued the creation of high-performance watches that can maintain timekeeping functions even in harsh environments. From the launch of the brand’s first waterproof watch, the Delfine, in 1961, to the current flagship collection “Chrono Offshore 1” and the latest series “Neptunian” in the shape of the god of the sea, we have been at the forefront of diver’s watch development for more than 50 years.
We have a number of partnerships with the sports scene, including serving as the official timekeeper of international luxury sports competitions. With its toughness, such as shock resistance and water resistance, Edox watches are highly trusted by elite athletes.
