Dubai, India (PressExposure) July 10, 2011 -- Perrelet is making a noteworthy entrance into the fascinating world of scuba diving. Its new Seacraft radiates a timeless elegance that will be duly appreciated by devotees of the extreme.
The understated sophistication of the steel case is enlivened by finely contrasting polished and brushed surfaces. The case middle is fitted with a 4 mm thick sapphire crystal glareproofed on both sides as well as a stamped; screw-down back - a set of characteristics that guarantee the 777-metre water resistance of this measuring instrument.
An automatic helium valve appearing at 9 o'clock is designed to compensate during deep dives for the effects of decompression on the interior of the watch* and ensures impeccably smooth running of automatic Calibre P-271. The brand's signature fluted motif is harmoniously expressed on the rotating bezel of the Seacraft. Available in a choice of white, black or blue, the dial lends a touch of refined sporting elegance, while the applied hour-markers, the hands as well as the dive-start dot on the notched bezel are also coated with a luminescent substance to enhance visibility.
Fitted with an alligator leather strap or a brushed steel bracelet, each Seacraft model is also delivered with a high-tech nylon strap suitable for the most extreme sporting conditions.
The Seacraft collection comes in three different versions: chronograph, 3 hands-date and GMT.
*The helium valve prevents potential damage caused by the expansion of helium atoms entering the case when coming up from a deep dive. During the decompression phase, the expanded gas can thus be vented and avoid any damage to the watch.
