To begin, the watch is made from titanium, which ensures the watch isn’t too heavy (105 grams with all links) and lends the typical titanium look to the watch. The case and bracelet have a durable black coating. Additionally this special edition comes with a very comfortable silicone strap as well.

The case has a modest diameter of 42.7mm and 12.2mm thickness, which both ensure a very comfortable wearing experience, despite packaging so many features under the hood. The gorgeous dial has a unique asphalt pattern and is of course protected by sapphire glass, which has a truly Super-clear coating, that makes it seem like the glass isn’t there and allows you a clear view of the wonderful depth of the dial. 

The SSH137J1 has a a unique blend of styles at a quality and finishing level that feels more grand than the price tag demands and is limited to just 1200 pieces worldwide.
