Steinhart Ocean 3 GMT Blue/Grey Ceramic |
The bezel on the Ocean GMT is a classic diver design yet in a unique colourway. The Ocean GMT has a new upgraded blue/grey bezel done in ceramic which is not commonly known by watch collectors. The new ceramic bezel has numbers and markers that are all engraved to give it depth. The cavities are then filled in white enamel to match the theme with a luminous pip at the 12 o'clock position. The engraved bezel makes the numbers and markers visible under all lighting conditions. With a luminous pip at the 12 o'clock position. The knurling on the side of the bezel is deep and clean. This helps in getting a good grip on the bezel for easy bezel operation. The 120 clicks bezel clicks positively into position.

Overall, the Steinhart Ocean 3 GMT 42 Ceramic exhibits a new design with great value. For the price, you get a Swiss Made watch with an SW330-2, Elaboré movement, a full 316L stainless steel 100m GMT diver watch with SEL bracelet and an overall well finished sturdy watch. This was before not achievable until Steinhart arrived and also probably the reason why Steinhart has quite a huge following although only been around for only 15 years.
