Following the success of the Great Barrier Reef Limited Edition in 2010, Swiss watch maker Oris presents the Maldives Limited Edition Series for 2011.
Available in a titanium case, the back of this unique divers watch features the Manta Ray Logo, paying homage to the endangered species.
The dark blue ceramic inlay on the unidirectional revolving top ring comes with an engraved 60 minute scale which can be used for precision timing for diving and other sporting activities. The indices and hands of the time piece are in Superluminova dark orange – resulting in an easy to read timepiece even when under water.
The titanium crown protector is fixed with distinctive Oris screws for added security and the double curved sapphire crystal is coated with an inside anti-reflex layer. The buckles of the rubber strap and metal bracelet can easily be adjusted to the desired length for comfortable fitting.
Water resistant to 30bar (300 m 1000 ft), the Oris Maldives Limited Edition is perfect for serious Scuba Divers along with those looking for the stylish aesthetics of a beautiful functional divers watch.
The Oris Maldives diving watch comes in a multipurpose soft pouch and with a limited edition certificate.
Limited to 2000 pieces, CHF 20 per watch will be donated to environmental NGO Bluepeace, to help protect endangered marine life in the Maldives.
