A double-domed crystal for minimal distortion, applied bead-blasted indices with super bright C3(X1) Super-LumiNova, a 5-link engineer bracelet, and of course, the GMT complication, so you can track multiple time zones.

Aoraki (Mt Cook) is the tallest mountain in New Zealand and the proving ground for Edmund Hillary, the first person to climb Mount Everest. Since starting the brand, we have never outsourced our QC or shipping ensuring that customers get the highest quality timepiece at an affordable price.

It’s our first watch with an antimagnetic case (20,000A\/m), our first watch with a flat crystal, and our first watch with a brush-finished case. While the latter might not seem like a big deal, there was a bit of thinking that went into designing a case that still adheres to the Draken design language. For this model, we also designed 4 completely different dial\/handset combinations. Each design tells a different story and has its own character. Swiss Super-LumiNova™ application is excellent as you would expect from Draken, and we’ve also upped the ante with the AR coating on the crystal. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs with our other models, Viton™️ gaskets come standard and the watch will come with both a leather bund single pass strap, and a military-style nylon strap more suitable for water.
