The SPD Edition Diver-1 Mission Timer is a special collaboration in partnership with the American watch brand Ares Watch Co. This rugged, yet sophisticated and purpose driven time piece was designed for today's modern adventurers and explorers. Featuring a Swiss ETA-2824 self-winding movement, hand tuned to certified chronometer spec, sapphire crystal with inside AR coating, an impressive 1000M depth rating, and built in the USA. This SPD Edition features the exclusive combination of a black Cerakote uni-directional diver elapsed bezel, black dial with the SPD Kraken Trident logo in C3 Super-LumiNova, sapphire crystal exhibition caseback, signature orange sweep hand, and the semi-recessed crown at the 4 o'clock position. There is a truly enduring quality to a timepiece whose heart is a self-winding mechanical movement. It speaks to a long tradition of analog precision and manufacturing focused on purely mechanical means. This watch does not rely on, nor will it ever need batteries to function, just your kinetic force of action day in and day out. Rated to go deeper than you will probably ever go, but moreover, an utterly reliable time keeping tool for the intrepid and those who are more than just "capable".

Michael N. ★★★★★

The luminous hands are incredibly bright after just a few minutes in the sun, making it easy to read at a glance in the dark. The collaboration feels purposeful, with a rugged design that still looks clean enough for daily wear. I've been wearing it non-stop since it arrived.

Ryan ★★★★★

The titanium case makes it lighter than I expected, which is great for daily wear. The dial is extremely legible even in low light, and the bezel action is crisp and satisfying.

Amelia L. ★★★★★

The lume on the bezel is incredibly bright after a quick charge, and the screw-down crown gives me confidence when I'm in salt spray. Keeps time perfectly, and the rubber strap is surprisingly comfortable for all-day wear.
