Toughest Watch in The World
The Girard Perregaux Sea Hawk II Pro 3000m (phew what a mouthful!) is a watch that might do James Bond proud. It’s tough as nails with panache and style in bucket loads.
Retailing for £6,000 ($12,000 approx) the Sea Hawk includes a rotating bezel, 4 o’clock crown (not sure what that means?) and an ascent / descent indicator.
Why is it tough? Well it’s certified to NIHS 92-10 Swiss industry standard - which basically means that the Sea Hawk is one of only a handful of watches that can go to a depth of 3,000m without imploding.
The watch casing incorporates two de-pressurisation valves which prevent helium, which penetrates in from the sea at depth, exploding out the watch when you surface. Ok, you have to ask the question “how often will I go down to 3000m” - but forget that. This watch is tough, cool and full of sophistication - just like our friend Mr Bond, the Sea Hawk can do things that we would never entertain!

the MTM black seal can resist 12,000 meters under water which is the depth of the mariana trench( the deepest part in the ocean)
