Only 50 of these limited edition Ocean Crawler Core Diver GMT watches have been made with this bold color scheme, (an Ocean Crawler hallmark,) making this quite a rare beast. Rarer still is the choice of a high end Swiss Soprod C125 automatic mechanical GMT movement that powers this timepiece. The Soprod C125 is considered a better and more expensive movement than the alternative Swiss ETA or Swiss Sellita options which we typically see. It comes with a very convenient quick-set GMT hand. Add to this heady mix the fact that the movement has been carefully regulated to be even more accurate than when it left Soprod's factory, and you can see why we're completely in love with this watch.
Every Ocean Crawler Core Diver GMT, without exception, has been immersed in water and pressure tested up to a water resistance rating of 2,000 feet, something most microbrands don't do. Ocean Crawler even go so far as to test each watch with ten different shock tests, the severest of which is the 6,000G impact hammer test, hundreds of times more g-force than in typical car crash tests. Ocean Crawler is a very apt name indeed for this brand, as you can feel comfortable traversing the ocean floor wearing one of these timepieces.
The specs on the Ocean Crawler Core Diver GMT are equally impressive. The helium escape valve here actually adds to the balanced look of the design. The sapphire glass is 4mm thick. The Swiss Super-Luminova C3 lume, (the brightest color,) is seven layers thick on the ceramic sapphire glass bezel. We think you get the picture. Little wonder that this watch microbrand is comfortable providing a five year manufacturer's warranty with each watch, something you can take advantage of through The Microbrand Store™ as an Ocean Crawler authorized dealer.
