The recently launched new professional divers watch from the sporty Oris TT1 line provides a new centre of attention. With its regulator movement showing the hours and seconds away from their usual central position, it is the minutes that take centre stage. The minute display, which is of paramount importance to the diver, is thus given the prominence it deserves. The Divers Regulator is aimed at water-sport participants and other enthusiasts of technical sports equipment.
 
This Divers watch is a supreme example of one of sports essential accessories: the High-Mech movement is housed in a first-class titanium case with a diameter of 44.00 mm. The watch is water resistant to a depth of 1000 m and fitted with an unidirectional security divers top ring, a helium valve and a thick 4.70 mm curved sapphire crystal, for optimal reading of the displays with luminous tritium inlay on the black dial.
 
Both the case back and the massive Oris crown at 4 o’clock are screwed down. The black rubber strap with Formula One vertical tyre tread pattern underlines the sporty emphasis of the TT1 line. With the versatile titanium clasp, it can be extended without any specialist tools. The watch is also available with a titanium bracelet.
 
The new Oris TT1 Divers Regulator – unmistakably sporty and professional - is now available. Dive into the Rivoli stores across the UAE to get the best deals.
