Zelos Blacktip Titanium Burnt Orange - Limited Edition

We've cherry-picked the best four colors from the Zelos Blacktip Limited Edition Titanium series for our microbrand watch collectors. These all sold out extremely quickly on Zelos' site.

The Zelos Blacktip Titanium Burnt Orange features an outstanding orange sunburst fumé gradient dial that reminds us of the sun serenely setting over calm water.

All of these Zelos Blacktip watches come with Zelos' three watch travel case, and since we're an authorized dealer, the full Zelos warranty in addition to our own supplemental warranty.

Why We Love This Watch

Sunburst Fumé Dial

The highlight of the Zelos Blacktip Burnt Orange's design is the gradient dial that starts black on the outside and slowly transitions to an orange core with a radial sunburst effect that looks simply stunning as you move the dial in sunlight. The bold choice of a black ceramic bezel insert with black stealth markings blends in perfectly with the fume gradient effect, which looks incredible.

Hidden Benefits to Match

The engineering specifications for this 41mm dive watch is on a par with it's stellar good looks. Hidden benefits include a light but extremely strong titanium case and bracelet that have been surface hardened with a 1200 Vickers scratch resistant finish, which when combined with the scratch resistant domed sapphire crystal, scratch resistant ceramic bezel insert, and robust high beat automatic movement with Parashock anti-shock protection and 200 meters water resistance rating, all make this watch eminently suitable as a daily wear for even the most hardened adventurer.

On the comfort and convenience side, micro-adjustments to the bracelet length can easily be made on the go, without needing any tools, thanks to the hidden ratcheting diver's extension mechanism in the clasp. As we've come to expect from Zelos, the bracelet also features female end links for a better fit, quick release tool-less spring bars for each strap changes, and screwed links, for easy at-home resizing.

A particularly noteworthy refinement is the strong liberal application of Swiss Super-LumiNova lume in a very well thought out cyan (BGW9) and green (C3) two color scheme, with fantastic touches such as the hour hand and major indices being split into three sections with both colors applied, and a lumed screw-down crown.
