JP Cali – 044
FIELD
Hydro Series
Fully built and ready to ship
The Cali Field is a military inspired field watch. It features a high readability matte black dial with white printed numerals in C1 Super-LumiNova®. The minute track pays homage to vintage military watches and features 12 triangle hour markers printed with BGW9 Super-LumiNova®. This creates a dynamic and unique dual-compound luminous dial that glows both green and blue.
The hands are in a military style and are gloss black and white. The hands are filled with C1 Super-LumiNova® to match the dial.
The anti-reflective sapphire crystal has a blue tinted anti-reflective coating (on the underside only) and so provides great performance in every light condition.
The case is a solid 316 stainless steel case, with a fixed polished black PVD bezel. The main body of the case has been professionally hydro dipped in white/grey/black digital camouflage by Bold Hydrographics. It has been given a matt topcoat which gives the case a tactile and matt finish to complement the military style. The case also features a sand blasted screwed-down caseback and crown. (The rear of the case has been left white).
Timing is done by the Seiko NH36A automatic movements which run at 21600bph and have 41h power reserve. Like all good military field watches this movement features a hacking seconds hand, meaning the second hand stops when the crown is pulled out into setting position. This makes regulation and synchronisation much more accurate.
It comes with an black and white stripe Marine Nationale navy style elastic nylon strap with brushed stainless steel buckles.
