Ocean 39 Tropic Plexi - Gnomon Exclusive

Switching up gears and dive into the very heart of our Steinhart Ocean 39 Tropic Plexi. A watch that brings you beauty through its wabi-sabi beauty, with its mesmerizing aged look and golden hues. This exquisite timepiece never ceases to impress enthusiasts and collectors with its established design, connecting all the way back to the late 1960s. Anybody with a hint of passing interest in vintage watches will be aware of the allures of "tropical dial" found on those pieces that traverse with time, soak in the bustling world around them, and aging gracefully. And the Gnomon Exclusive Ocean 39 celebrates this naturally inspired art found within the mechanical world. Steinhart Ocean 39 Tropic Plexi - Gnomon Exclusive From a long lineage of iconic timepieces, its "tropical" appeal spreads oh-so evenly, from the dial unto the bezel, and topping things off with the domed acrylic crystal accentuates the vintage effect. Not only that, the Ocean 39 imbues the rich history behind every detail incorporated into this watch that bestows a tribute to its robust predecessors utilized by professional divers in the past, specifically its minimalist aesthetic, before the parturition of complications of date display or GMT function came into existence. Notably, the Ocean 39 Tropic Plexi is the breathtaking result of Gnomon Watches continuous collaboration with Steinhart. Our loyalty and friendship forged through thick and thin with this German watchmaker form the foundation upon which we craft a phenomenal watch fit for a king. As the first and only authorized dealer for Steinhart in Singapore, we have built a strong partnership with this renowned brand for more than two decades. We are incredibly honored to forge a coveted place on the dial of this Steinhart timepiece. PS. This would be our very first exclusive ongoing model that clads the nostalgic acrylic crystal. Pin-Hole Lugs with Ultra Vintage Domed Plexi Crystal Correct Dimensions Who could deny the versatility and robustness of steel when it comes to watchmaking? Made from 316L stainless steel, the case of this timepiece flaunts a satin-brushed finish on the top of its lugs and polished sides, mirroring the finishing of dive watches straight back in the 1960s. Commensurate and period apt, the 39mm wide case has a 47mm lug to lug and a height of 14mm, reflecting the emerging epoch of professional tool watches for divers. Besides, the Ocean 39 clads a screw-down crown with the Steinhart emblem engraved, allowing excellent water resistance of 100m. Be it above or below the surface, a dive watch must be worthy of its salt and ready for anything. If you're conditioned to wearing modern watches, the Ocean 39 Tropic Plexi will not pose any problems as a daily wearer with an entire vintage presence. The Ocean 39 Tropic Plexi also features a classic diver bezel, with a luminous pip at its 12 o'clock, allowing divers to read off the elapsed time of under one hour from a specific point. This brilliant steel bezel has deep and clean knurling on its side for excellent grip during operation. Polished to perfection, this unidirectional bezel displays all the grandeur of this watch in 120 clicks. Fitted neatly with the watch case, a satin-brushed oyster bracelet with screw links and a flip-lock. Tapered from 20mm from its flush-fit end links to a slim 16mm at the bi-fold clasp, this stainless steel bracelet blends in with and extends its case and bezel. The metal band is made with the same material to form a single perfect timepiece. It also brings out the splendor of this watch, gracing it with a timeless sophistication that is truly one that can exemplify a good dive watch. This metal bracelet does typically come with the sixties sports watches in the past - providing sturdiness and versatility throughout the years - topping off the sleek look of this watch so well.
