This watch is classed as “Like New”, which means that it is either a customer return or a former photo sample. As such it could have very minor signs of wear and may not be supplied with the original box. However, it has still been checked to ensure that it is running perfectly, and it has a 6 month warranty.
Drawing inspiration from the rich pigments of our Earth, ranging from golden reddish tones to deep warm browns, the Ocean-Scout – Sienna Brown introduces the essence of our planet to the Ocean-Scout collection, presenting a distinctive colour palette guaranteed to make a striking impression and is available with either Gold or Silver casing. Each watch is paired with a luxurious leather and versatile nylon strap. There are 25 pieces available of this beautiful edition.
Machined from 316L marine-grade stainless steel, the Ocean-Scout case is built for endurance. The removal of crown guards pays homage to classic dive watches and the anti-reflective sapphire box crystal further enhances the vintage aesthetic. The case between the lugs has been shaped to accommodate steel and leather straps with particular attention paid to how a Military Nylon strap fits around a watch. A 60-minute diving bezel reinforces the 200m water resistant capability of the watch.
The Ocean-Scout has a classic 3, 6, 9 dial design available in blue, green, or black. Each hour marker, whether a numeral or baton, is crafted with raised and shaped luminescence. Sword hands complement the vintage theme established by the crown and crystal. A minute track circumnavigates the dial and the seconds hand has been planned to the perfect length; just making contact with the track.
Low light legibility will never be an issue with the Ocean-Scout as the indices and hands are equipped with blue glow BGW9 Super Luminova. The bezel pip is also BGW9 treated. This specific compound of luminescence remains stark white in daylight giving a sophisticated clean and crisp look to the watch and offsets perfectly against the deep colour of the ocean inspired dials.
Powering the Ocean-Scout is an automatic Miyota 9039 movement, which falls within Miyota’s Premium line. This highly capable unit offers 24 Jewels, Para Shock protection, a power reserve of 42 hours and expected accuracy of between -10 to +30 seconds per day. The movement is sealed away under a bespoke engraved case back which displays the stylised compass logo of the Ocean-Scout and shows the unique limited issue number of your watch.
