Constructed of two pieces with a special mechanism that prevents inverse rotation, the anti-reverse bezel offers both functional operation and a quality look. The two-piece construction with the lower piece seemingly tucked under the upper piece in a "claw grip" produces a powerful face design with bezel rotation taken fully into account. IP treatment in different colours is applied to the two respective pieces, enhancing the high-quality impression.
The OCEANUS mark is engraved on the chronograph operation button. We also applied IP treatment, moreover, to differentiate this button from the others. The asymmetrical design adopted for the button guard permits easy operation of the buttons while assuring their full protection, and adds further to this model's powerful presence.
The forged case back with its muscular modelling achieves the requisite air-tightness to assure 20-bar water resistance.
The four surfaces of the band links are finished with polish-processing to provide a 3-D image. The 3-fold buckle employs a 2-sided push clasp and locking cover.
The titanium-carbide treatment employed to harden the surface of the case, band and case back brings out the beautiful metal colouring while protecting the metal surfaces from dents and scratches with its superior abrasion resistance.
The design employed for the inset dial in the 2 o'clock position was created with yacht racing in mind. The metre-look scales suggest marine sports and offer outstanding visibility. A wave-like 3-D pattern is arranged on the dial, recalling the sea.
⦁Sapphire glass: The face is protected by scratch-resistant spherical sapphire glass with a non-reflective coating.
⦁Highly visible 3-D time indications: A bold concave shape is employed for the time indications and high-visibility light-absorbent painting is applied to the concave areas.
⦁Hour and minute hands
Light-absorbent painting and white printing are applied to the hour and minute hands with their oversized heads, contributing further to the powerful face design and ensuring clear visibility.
⦁Date/day display
Five of CASIO's unique, super-small, energy-efficient electric motors are combined to create an advanced 5-Motor Drive. These five motors with their independent operation achieve a versatile multi-functionality that no conventional chronograph can offer.
- ⦁1/20-sec. stopwatch: Both hands on the 1/20-second stopwatch can be reset instantaneously.
- ⦁World Time: When one of the city codes surrounding the dial is selected, the time in the indicated city is displayed.
Home time/World Time switching is also supported. - ⦁Alarm: Displays the current time and the set alarm time simultaneously, and permits alarm ON/OFF checking right on the dial.
- ⦁Yacht racing-compatible timer: The timer features a 30-minute measurement capability, advanced alarms and a halfway rest function in addition to conventional timer functions.
The Multi Band 5 radio-control technology mounted in the full-metal case receives time calibration signals from 5 transmission stations worldwide (two in Japan and one each in North America, Germany and the United Kingdom).
- ⦁Designed for interference-free installation of Multi Band radio control, the full-metal case permits highly efficient reception of radio waves transmitted from five stations in three different frequencies.
- ⦁The reception IC achieves stable radio-wave reception in three transmission frequencies - 40 kHz, 60 kHz or 77.5 kHz - while mounted in the full-metal case.
- ⦁Miniaturised, high-sensitivity amorphous antenna
- ⦁CASIO's high-density mounting technology and a 6-layer circuit board provide enhanced design freedom contributing to an optimal parts layout.
- ⦁Large-capacity, highly energy-efficient LSI
- ⦁Radio-controlled (Multi Band 5)
- ⦁Tough Solar
- ⦁World Time
- ⦁Yacht racing-compatible timer
- ⦁1/120-sec. stopwatch
- ⦁Daily alarms
- ⦁Auto calendar
- ⦁Titanium case
- ⦁Solid titanium band
- ⦁20-bar water resistant
