A fusion of proud Japanese tradition and innovation
With "Elegance & Technology" as its brand concept, the OCEANUS Manta achieves exemplary finishing and craftsmanship in a beautifully sculpted 42mm titanium case which measures a svelte 9.5mm thick. Its stealthy and stylish DLC (diamond-like carbon) finish renders the case highly resistant to wear, while maintaining traditional Japanese polishing techniques known as "Sallaz."
A gradation from black to blue is used for the dial, and blue is used for the hour and minute hands. The 16-faceted polygonal bezel is unique to Manta, and the city code is written on the bezel to ensure high legibility with a clean face design. In addition, a curved line that flows from the case to the band creates an even more elegant silhouette.
Timekeeping is automated by a Multi-Band 6 radio-controlled time correction module which passively receives radio wave signals from anywhere in the world throughout the day for automatic updates. The watch is also equipped with Bluetooth® smartphone link for even quicker time & date updates – enabling the wearer the ability to easily set the world time for up to 300 cities while automatically correcting to adjust for time zone or local daylight savings time, all of which should prove extremely useful for frequent fliers.
All of this utility, together with a sporty 100 meters of water resistance rounds out a master class in the fusion of Japanese craftsmanship, tradition, watchmaking capability, and cutting-edge innovation.
