About this entry
84% of key specs known. Missing: weight, hardening, link attachment.
The 42mm sibling of the Swordfish 40mm SS, sold in batches since October 2023 (Black Sand, Ember Orange, MOP), then October 2024 (Sky Blue, Nimbus Grey, DLC Meteorite), November 2025 (Nebula, Spark, DLC Scarlet) and July 2026 (Arctic, Amber, Holo). All share the listed specs; all were sold out at Zelos on 2026-10-21 (SeriousWatches still had Amber). Not the same watch as the 2018-2019 Swordfish 300m Diver or the 2020 Swordfish Ti 42mm, which have a 13mm, 300m case. The DLC variants (Zelos lists Scarlet as "Swordfish 42mm DLC") are the same 316L case and bracelet with a black DLC coating that Zelos describes as "a hard coating applied for resistance against small scratches"; no hardness figure, and no hardening on the plain steel variants, so case.hardening is left blank at model level. Thickness 12mm as listed by Zelos (not stated whether it includes the flat crystal). Screw-down crown, unidirectional bezel and solid end links per SeriousWatches; Zelos says "female end links". Bezel click count not stated for the 42mm (aBlogtoWatch counted 120 on the 2023 40mm). Bezel insert material is from Zelos's colourway text where given; otherwise from SeriousWatches (noted per variant). Lume varies by colourway (C3, BGW9, light-blue, orange or blue Super-LumiNova). Clasp: Zelos describes the July 2026 batch's "all new" quick adjust clasp as adjustable on the fly via an external button with 4 positions; earlier batches had an earlier clasp design (SeriousWatches on the 2023 batch: "now micro adjustable at the clasp"), so micro-adjust details may differ for older colourways. Three links per row counted from Zelos's photos; link attachment, taper and weight not published.
