“OCEANUS (Ocyanas) ”The sporty line "CACHALOT (Cacharo)" will release the OCW-P3000 『Intuitive Time Reading for Major Cities Around the World』 on October 16th. Combining a rotating bezel with city codes around the outer periphery of the letterboard, it features a unique "time zone navigator" that allows you to see the time in each city around the world, enhancing the convenience of globally active business people. We asked product planners Totsuka and Kuroba about the development background and their particular interests. For business people traveling the world ―What is the OCW-P3000's place in the CACHALOT series? Totsuka: Since its launch in 2008, CACHALOT has developed models equipped with features such as heading measurement and waterproofing for ISO-standard 200m diving, with marine activities such as yachting, windsurfing and diving in mind. This OCW-P3000 maintains that “active use” spirit while expanding its target audience to include business people traveling the world. We aimed to create a new CACHALOT that can be relied upon in a variety of situations, from the sea to the air and even at a desk while traveling. Timezone Navigator using a rotating bezel ―Please tell us about the biggest feature of this event: the "Time Zone Navigator." Kurobane: Place the city codes of major cities around the world on the outer perimeter of the letterboard, and when you press the button at 10 o'clock, the second hand will point to the city that is currently at midnight. Simply align the ▽ mark on the rotating bezel with the city pointed to by the second hand, and the bezel's 24-hour display and city code will give you a quick look at the current time in each city around the world. The bezel is color-coded to two tones during the day (6am 〜 6pm) and at night (18am 〜 6am), making it easier to distinguish between day and night. ―How did you think it differentiated from existing GMT features? Totsuka: The GMT function used in other companies' watches incorporates an additional fourth hand (GMT hand) into the hour and minute hand, displaying the second time period as a 24-hour display. When traveling to business or frequently interacting with multiple locations, there is also a need to know the time in multiple cities at once. Therefore, the OCW-P3000 employs a time zone navigator that combines a rotating bezel and city codes. Simply check the bezel's 24-hour scale against the city code to see the time around the world at a glance. The even more advanced "TOUGH MVT.2" ―Tell us about your evolution in terms of movement. Kuroba: This machine has been upgraded for the first time in 18 years. It is equipped with 2 (Tough Movement 2). In addition to the automatic time correction function, automatic needle position correction function, and Tough Solar, we have also incorporated the new "automatic needle position correction function with impact detection" and "magnetic field detection function." It instantly detects impact and automatically corrects the needle position, pauses needle movement if it detects a strong magnetic field, and automatically returns to the correct position when the magnetic field subsides. Smartphones and magnetic devices maintain accurate time even in modern environments where they are readily available. We also aim to improve the feel of the bezel and overall visibility ―Are there any particular aspects of the design or operation that you paid particular attention to? Totsuka: Because the time zone navigator actually uses a rotating bezel, we have been creating prototypes with the aim of creating a comfortable spinning motion that is neither too hard nor too loose. With visibility in mind, the index has enhanced its presence and features luminous paint to make it easier to read day and night. By changing the color of the tip of the second hand, which indicates midnight, the reference city is easier to recognize. The letter board also has a texture that can be enhanced by vapor deposition, and Indial uses a highly pigmented, impermeable material, making it easy to read World Time at a glance. The new H-piece metal band is made by welding and combining separate parts with a mirror finish to achieve a high-quality finish. ―Finally, please share your future prospects and messages to users. Kuroba: The new "Tough Movement 2" is a movement that can handle various modern environmental factors such as shocks and magnetic fields, and maintain high time accuracy. I hope to be a trusted partner to everyone working on the stage around the world. We will continue to strive to create watches that support an active lifestyle. Totsuka: I hope that the "Time Zone Navigator" that OCEANUS first installed will provide encouraging support to those active on the world stage. Furthermore, every detail has been thoroughly refined, including the visibility of being able to read the time at a glance, the texture of the letter board, and the operability of the rotating bezel. Compared to the conventional OCW-P1000 and OCW-P2000, it has a compact size that is easier to wear, so we hope you will be able to wear it on your arm in a store and experience the perfection of the design.

Thanks!

My first thought is Hamilton style. Benrus makes some field watches without a brand name on the dial but I can't find this particular model.   

Anybody recognize this watch. I like the utter simplicity. Thanks.

The basic function of a clock is to "display the time". The three hands of the long hand, short hand, and second hand are the main characters, and the question is how accurately the time can be displayed. Among OCEANUS, where multifunctional chronographs are the mainstream, the model that sticks to that one point is the 3-hand date analog “3 Hands Models”. Because it is a simple watch that has been stripped down to the bare minimum, the individuality, design, and technical capabilities are put to the test. In a sense, it can be said that the true value of the brand is questioned in the basic three-needle model. Therefore, this time, I would like to pick up the "OCW-T200S" series and approach the charm of "3 Hands Models", which is another face of OCEANUS. Oceanus blue, a new color full of personality The design concept of the “OCW-T200S” series is “Clean Elegance”. In the business scene where clothing is becoming more casual due to the influence of work style reforms and cool biz, we built a simple and sophisticated three-needle face that matches the business style of the young generation full of energy. The main model " OCW-T200S-1AJF] adopts a newly developed vapor deposition color on the dial with the theme of “emotional blue”. This new color was developed through trial and error with vapor deposition colors and processing methods, with the aim of creating a simple yet attractive blue that is typical of OCEANUS.  At first glance, the dial looks black, but depending on the viewing angle, a dark navy appears. In addition to the dial, blue vapor deposition is also applied to the inside of the flat bezel that has a linear texture, making it a piece that shines with the brand's individuality that has always been particular about the color "blue". Sharp and solid design Among the 3-hand models that aim to display the time, visibility is emphasized. High visibility is ensured by making the hands, which are the main characters, and the time characters that support them three-dimensional, sharp, and solid. In addition, the case and band of the "OCW-T200S-1AJF" are made of stainless steel, giving it a moderately heavy feel.  By incorporating a mirror surface based on the hairline surface and separately polishing it, we have achieved a finish that gives a sense of sharp and solid quality. In addition, attention to detail is alive and well, such as the scratch-resistant titanium carbide treatment, which can be said to be OCEANUS's specialty, and sallaz polishing that requires skill. Advanced technology that pursues basic functions Time management is one of the most essential elements of being a businessman. OCEANUS, which fuses digital and analog, fully demonstrates its technology here as well. Until now, the 3-hand model was a radio solar model that corrected the time on its own with a standard radio wave reception function, but the "OCW-T200S" series also has a time correction function with a smartphone link using Bluetooth®. The accuracy of ticking time has become more reliable and accurate.  In addition, the younger generation who are digital natives can handle it without difficulty, such as managing the condition of the watch with a smartphone, and it is perfect for backing up in the battlefield of business. From the left "OCW-T200SB-1AJF" "OCW-T200S-1AJF" "OCW-T200SCE-8AJR" "OCW-T200SLE-2AJR" Abundant variations of the "OCW-T200S" series In addition to the "OCW-T200S-1AJF", the "OCW-T200S" series has a lineup of 3 models that can be selected according to the scene and taste. First of all, all black " OCW-T200SB-1AJF" with black IP processing’. By using blue for the hour letters and hands as an accent, we have achieved a fearless design in which the brand color blue stands out in a chic appearance. Next, the calm gray dial is eye-catching " OCW-T200SCE-8AJR’.  It is possible to replace the gray military style cross band and the black leather band so that it can be used both on and off. And " OCW-T200SLE-2AJR " which adopted vivid blue for the dial .’. This is also a set of two leather bands, blue and brown. It is a specification that you can enjoy changing depending on the situation. In such a minimalist design, there are variations that express maximum individuality while keeping basic business colors such as navy, gray, black, and blue. The "OCW-T200S" series can give a clean and refreshing impression in business settings where first impressions are important. "3 Hands Models" will continue to pursue functions and designs that are close to the lifestyle of businessmen. I would like you to express yourself by wearing a simple yet high-quality, individuality that gives you a sense of the world of OCEANUS. Fresh and vivid vivid green “The OCW-T200S is a model based on the design concept of 'Clean Elegance' and is suited to the energetic business style of the young generation. I chose green because I wanted to have a collection with a new theme.” A stainless steel model with a simple and sophisticated 3-needle face has a green dial with good color development by making the material itself transparent green and applying vapor deposition from the top surface. Green, one of the three primary colors of light (blue is one of them), gives a calm and calm impression, while subtly asserting individuality. In addition, by adopting a light-shielding distributed solar that efficiently receives light and generates power, we are pursuing quality while being transparent "It's not the orthodox black or white dial, and it's not even blue. I hope it will be one that complements the individuality of those who choose the color green and value their youthfulness and playfulness. Blue is the only logo. The decisiveness of not using it is also filled with such thoughts.” Specifications Release date: April 2019 Price: Manufacturer's suggested retail price  ¥66,000 (tax included) Case size (length x width x thickness): 49.5 x 41.4 x 10.7mm Weight: 133 grams Case/bezel material: Stainless steel Band: Metal band (stainless steel) - One-push three-fold type clasp Waterproof: 10 ATM water resistant Time correction: Radio clock MULTIBAND6 for Japan, North America, Europe and China Power supply and battery life: Tough Solar (solar charging system) Mobile link function (function interlocking with compatible mobile phones via Bluetooth communication) Glass: Internal anti-reflection coating sapphire glass Surface treatment: Titanium carbide treatment Lume: Neobright Full auto calendar Needle position automatic correction function Power saving function (in the dark, after a certain period of time, the hands stop moving to save power) Drive time: When using the drive time function without solar power generation from full charge: About 5 months When power saving state: About 20 months Accuracy: If radio wave reception is not performed or smartphones are not linked, it operates with normal quartz accuracy (average monthly difference ± 15 seconds).
