For sale, a beautiful full-set Crepas L'Océan diving tool, with blue dial and bezel.
Original and hard to come by., this timepiece is part of a limited run of 313 pieces, the watch is in excellent conditions with very minor hairlines and no dings.
It's a great piece, built like a tank and simply beautiful from all angles. The 120 click bezel is precise and glows in the dark, just like the luminova hands and dial markers. It’s water resistance is tested to 120 ATM or 1200 meters. When you hold the watch, with it thick sapphire crystal and helium valve and strong build, you realize this is no empty claim. Movement has been finely regulated three months ago and keeps excellent time (well within +/- 10 secs per day).
Watch comes full set, with its case and papers, original steel “ladder” bracelet, a original crepas band in blue rubber and tools.
It's a limited edition piece from the excellent Spanish micro brand specialized in diving tool watches, CREPAS (Compañía Relojera Especializada para Actividades Subacuáticas or Watch Company Specialized in Underwater Activities). This recent model wasinspired by (and improved on) a watch worn by Commandant Cousteau in 1960s.
