Bausele has released the limited edition OceanMoon V RAAF watch in collaboration with Royal Australian Air Force.
Earlier Bausele created the Royal Australian Air Force centenary watch in 2021 and the MIL-SPEC collection in collaboration with the United States Armed Forces.
The new RAAF timepiece is based the newly launched Ocean Moon V model and comes complete with a blue sunray dial and two crowns to control both the hands and the inner bi-directional bezel. The dial features the new Air Force logo with a clean and sophisticated design.
Its 42mm stainless steel case houses the Calibre Sellita SW200 Swiss automatic movement. To enhance antimagnetic properties, Bausele utilizes a Faraday cage shock system inside it. This Swiss made watch is water-resistant up to 200 meters.
It boasts an elegant blue sunray-style sandwich dial. The large hands, indices, and digits are outfitted with Super-Luminova to allow for timekeeping even at night. Both the dial and the case back are adorned with the Royal Australian Air Force name and kangaroo logo.
To complete the timepiece, Bausele utilizes a unique band that uses high-performance recycled PET plastic to resemble the texture of sand on the beach.
The Bausele OceanMoon V RAAF is limited to 200 pieces.
