According to the understanding of ordinary watch fans, so-called “high-performance” diving watches will be equipped with a helium escape device so that the helium gas that enters the watch body through the gaps in the watch due to high pressure in the deep sea can be eliminated, preventing it from surfacing during the process of surfacing. , due to the reduction in pressure, the helium expands and squeezes the watch crystal, causing the risk of rupture. To overcome the enormous pressure in the deep sea, this type of professional diving watch is composed of multi-layer structures, so the watch body is usually thicker, which is also a significant feature. This article introduces several high-performance diving watches, all waterproof to at least 500 meters. Let’s see if watch fans can control them!

ORIS Dive Control
Oris collaborated with Swiss commercial diver Roman Frischknecht to launch the Dive Control limited edition diving watch and specially developed a patented Rotation Safety System (RSS), which can protect the ceramic bezel covered with toothed rubber through a unique locking mechanism to prevent it from being damaged. When using the bezel to record the dive time or operating the timing function with an accuracy of 1/4 second, any errors in the process will affect the accuracy. Bell and ross replica.

Equipped with the 8906 Master Co-Axial Escapement self-winding movement, it has passed eight rigorous tests by the Master Chronometer (METAS) of the Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology, including the ability to withstand a maximum magnetic force of 15,000 Gauss.
The manual helium escape valve is located at 10 o’clock, and the helium in the watch can be discharged by turning the Crown. The blue ceramic bezel is combined with a scale made of Liquidmetal, and the first 15 minutes are embedded in orange rubber, which is quite bright.
