[Oceanus Solar] OCW-S5000ME — high-quality finish and a beautiful form

OCEANUS manta ray pursuing a high-quality finish and a thin and beautiful form. The OCW-S5000ME is based on the thin OCW-S5000, and incorporates Japanese traditional crafts, lacquer work, into the design. Makie is a technique of drawing pictures and letters with lacquer on the surface of lacquer ware and sprinkling gold or silver metal powder on the surface of the lacquer ware before it dries. This model was developed and manufactured by Yutaro Shimode, a traditional craftsman from Kyoto. With the motif of Mr. Shimoide’s masterpiece “Eternal Whisper” that expresses the sparkle of water using platinum, the dial and bezel sapphire glass are decorated with platinum lacquer work as in the work. All of them are done manually by Mr. Shimoide, so no one is the same. In terms of functionality, in addition to the time adjustment function of the watch itself using the standard radio wave reception function, it is equipped with a time adjustment function using a smartphone link using Bluetooth®. You can easily set the world time from about 300 cities, and automatically respond to changes in the time zone and daylight saving time. These high-performance features are housed in a slim case with a thickness of 9.3 mm to achieve a thin and beautiful form. Tradition and advancement. OCEANUS manta ray that combines two Japan pride.
