This watch was developed using modern 3D CAD software to engineer every small detail. These are not "off the shelf" cases, crowns, dials, hands and other major external parts. This is all functional design. The 40mm 316L stainless steel case is forged from a solid block for maximum density and strength, machined out internally, heat treated and fine bead blasted for increased surface hardness. If that were not enough, we also added an anti-fingerprint coating to the surface to fill in any microscopic pits left from bead blasting that can collect grease and oils. The final surface finish is completely smooth and extremely scratch resistant. The crystal is sapphire with an anti-reflective coating on the inside to help cut down glare yet remain extremely scratch resistant on the outside. The movement is a new concept. Completely solar powered but not in a traditional way. Generally with a solar movement, the panels are under the dial, requiring the dial to have limitations and has to also be at least 60% transparent. Enter the Japan made Miyota 2170 movement used here. This movement allows for 100% freedom in dial design. The solar panels are vertical and surrounding the edge of the dial beneath the sapphire. There is a clear ring over the panel so its nearly impossible to even see it. No battery changes are required! Exposure to sunlight will provide up to 4 months of continuous use on a full charge. In daily use it will run continuously on sunlight. This movement is also designed to pull the weight of heavier, luminous hands. The dial is made in 3 layers. The base layer, a matte painted flat brass 0.40mm thick dial. Markers are printed generously with X1 grade C3 GL (green glow) Super-Luminova. The second layer is also a 0.40mm thick, matte black painted brass ring that lays over the top of the smoothly rounded luminous markers with laser cutouts to create a clean sandwich shadow effect, adding a nice extra dimension to the dial. The 3rd layer is a 0.20mm thick layer of X1 grade C3 BL (blue glow) Super-Luminova surrounding the main dial markers for that extra pop in dimension and luminous performance. The unique diamond cut hands are custom designed to flow well with the smooth curves and corners of the dial. Length is carefully calculated to match with the dial layers. As a little easter egg, the tail of the seconds hand lines up exactly inside the EDC emblem when at 12:00. The Hour and minute hands are filled with X1 grade C3 GL (green glow) Super-Luminova while the seconds hand is filled with X1 grade C3 BL (blue glow) Super-Luminova. The 7mm threaded and sealed crown is designed for easy use with smoothly formed edges to enhance comfort on the wrist. There is an embossed logo on the end. The sealing design helps this watch achieve its 100 meter water resistance. With a common 20mm lug width, this watch is designed to accept just about any 20mm strap you can throw on it. Drilled lugs allow for really easy strap changes. The lug design curves downward to wrap closer to your wrist for comfort. This version includes a tried and true oyster type bracelet. Super comfortable, easy to size, smooth feel, durable. The clasp also has a lock bar to make sure you don't snag something and open the clasp. The case back is bead blasted and finished just like the case with deep engravings and tool holes for easy service. In creating these watches, we wanted a clean slate, a timeless, rugged style but with all sorts of small details to appreciate. Durability was the focus from the start. This is designed as a "daily beater" type watch. While there is a lot of content you see on higher priced watches, its not meant to be precious and sit in your watch box. These are made to wear daily no matter what. Every component is CAD designed in Ohio and manufactured in HK, Japan or Switzerland. Initial assembling and testing is carried out in HK while final assembling, casing up and testing is carried out in Mentor, Ohio. This allows us to save manufacturing time by weeding out any defects at the factory level, lower retail cost by partially assembling in HK and still control quality and final assembling in Ohio. We are not your average startup watch company. We have been manufacturing watches for over 15 years for over 100 brands and we are extremely devoted to our quality and customer service. These watches are properly engineered from the ground up to ensure durability and comfort.
