How It Started
A question nobody was asking. An answer nobody expected.
What if the most iconic watch shape ever made ran on sunlight and came from the ocean?
No battery. No guilt. No pretense. Just a diver-inspired case built from recycled ocean plastic, powered by whatever light finds it, designed to go on the right wrist and stay there all summer without asking for anything in return.
The Bond reference is intentional. The price is not an accident. The flirtation is the whole point.
