About this entry

79% of key specs known. Missing: weight, bracelet links, end links, link attachment.

Successor to the 2019 Sea Ranger, with a new case, a La Joux-Perret G100 instead of the Sellita SW200 and an internal 12-hour ring instead of the sapphire bezel. Brand specs (the same on all eight listings except the dial colour): 40mm, 45.5mm lug-to-lug, "12.5mm depth" (Worn & Wound also gives 12.5mm; the crystal is flat, so this is taken as the total height), brushed 316L with a 1200HV scratch-resistant coating, soft-iron plates for anti-magnetism to 20,000 A/m, two screw-down crowns (the lower one, at 4, winds and sets; the upper one, at 2, marked "2T", turns the internal 12-hour ring for a second time zone), flat sapphire with AR on the underside, 300m (30 ATM), Super-LumiNova C1 in X1 grade on the hands, markers and ring. LJP G100 with soignée finish and Côtes de Genève, 68h, adjusted in-house to ±8 s/day (positions not stated), custom date wheels. Bracelet 20mm tapering to 16mm, 316L with the 1200HV coating, and an NEM quick-adjust buckle; Worn & Wound says the clasp is made by Nodus, and Nodus's page describes the NEM as an on-the-fly module with four locking positions (range not stated). The caseback is solid (product photo). Each colour is sold as two store listings: on the bracelet with a matching FKM strap ($1,299) or on the FKM strap alone ($1,149). Store "grams" values are shipping weights, not watch weights, so no weight is recorded. On 2026-10-24 both Blue listings were sold out; the other colours could be ordered. Released July 2024 (listings published 2024-07-12; the strap-only listings followed in November 2024).
