It preserves the Sea-Dweller’s deep-diving legacy while introducing contemporary design updates. Featuring a black Cerachrom ceramic bezel and red “Sea-Dweller” text on the dial, it balances function with refined aesthetics. Its 43 mm Oystersteel case is water-resistant to 1,220 meters thanks to the Ringlock system and helium escape valve.
