NEW DELMA BLUE SHARK DIVES DEEP
Independent Swiss watchmaker Delma continues to swim with the sharks with a new dive watch made to venture far deeper than most of its similarly priced competitors .
The new Delma Blue Shark III Black Edition , water resistant to an incredible 4,000 meters , retains this collection ’ s very sporty technical features , including professional-level helium escape valve and crown protection , but now offers added protection of a scratch resistant black DLC coating on its 47mm steel case .
Built as a limited edition of 300 pieces , the new watch is hypervisible on a diver ’ s wrist with large luminous hands and indexes and luminous markers along its broad bezel .
Delma is making 300 examples of the new Blue Shark III Black Edition in each of three dial colors : black , blue or orange . All three versions come with an additional black genuine rubber strap and a black DLC-coated buckle with tools for interchanging the bracelets .
Inside Delma fits a Sellita automatic movement , which is protected by a solid caseback that Delma engraves with a Limited Edition number and an eye-catching blue shark image . Price : $ 2,750 .
