Nano Ceramic Glass
In what is believed to be a watch industry first, an innovative nano-ceramic glass replaces the sapphire glass of previous models. While the new NanoCeram™ glass has the same scratch-resistant properties as sapphire, laboratory tests show it is able to withstand significantly higher impacts without shattering.
To test their toughness, a stainless-steel ball was dropped onto each surface at increasing heights. While the sapphire glass would break when the ball was launched from 130 centimetres directly above, the nano-ceramic surface would resist breaking until the ball was launched from 170cm – demonstrating the innovative new ceramic-coated glass is approximately 30 per cent more shatter-proof than standard sapphire glass.
Recycled Plastic strap
Each model is packaged with its original natural rubber strap complete with metal deployant buckle, plus a second strap of the customer’s choice - leather (brown or black) or recycled plastic (blue or khaki).
Bausele Australia supports sustainability and supplies a plastic strap constructed entirely from recycled PET soft drink bottles.
Glow in the dark
The redesigned dial of the OceanMoon now features more luminescence than ever before, for significantly increased presence in low-light conditions. Luminova has now been applied not only to the hands, but also the numbers and indicators, the Bausele logo and the moon phase display. In models featuring a white dial, the entire watch face glows in the dark with Luminova.
As a result, the OceanMoon is now better suited than ever before to the laid-back Australian lifestyle, proving exceptional excellent legibility in any environment or season.
Tide and Moon phase indicator
As a local designed timepiece from an Australian-owned company, the moon phase indicator displays the side of the moon visible in the Southern Hemisphere. This is an extremely rare feature in an industry dominated by European and Northern Hemisphere brands, and also provides Northern Hemisphere wearers with an always-visible reference to Australia.
Similarly, the redesigned case back features a three-dimensional depiction of the Ocean and the Moon, showing the full moon as it is visible in Australia.
