Axios Ironclad 500-Meter Swiss Automatic Dive Watch with DD AR Sapphire Crystal #AX-IC-05

The Ironclad Deep Blue Meteorite watch features a dial made from the Muonionalusta meteorite which impacted in northern Scandinavia, west of the border between Sweden and Finland, about one million years BCE. The hour and hands are coated with SuperLuminova C3 for reading time in the dark. The ceramic bezel insert markings are also filled with with SuperLuminova C3 for viewing in the dark.

The watch celebrates the Ironclad battleships which first arrived in 1859 and quickly rose to become the dominant warship of that era; the Ironclad maintains the definitive dive watch silhouette and is infused with Axios design ideas – resulting in a watch that is reminiscent of the past, but wears its own character.

The watch is powered by a high-beat (i.e. 28,800 VPH) Swiss made Sellita SW-200-1 automatic movement housed in a 40mm diameter 316L stainless steel case. The 120-click uni-directional bezel features a scratch-resistant, ceramic bezel insert with luminous markings. The crystal is a double-dome sapphire with inner anti-reflective coating. And, the dial is made from the Muonionalusta meteorite. The hands, markers and bezel insert are treated with SuperLuminova C3 X1. The watch comes with a solid-link stainless steel bracelet with a deployant clasp.
