Luminox Scott Cassell Deep Dive, 45mm, Professional Divers Watch

Essence

While hunting drug dealers in the jungles of Columbia, Special-Ops Operative Scott Cassell fell in love with Luminox. This was due to high legibility and a robust case that took pretty extreme beatings during that mission. Scott is also an avid deep-sea diver and an environmentalist. To celebrate this friendship, Luminox decided to launch the Luminox Scott Cassell Deep Dive collection.

Features

The Scott Cassell Deep Dive is a dive watch which features the essential rECOn elements, including a sturdy 316L steel case, a professional-grade ratcheting unidirectional dive bezel, patented bezel locking device that doubles as a crown protector, 500-meter water resistance, and a clear, high-contrast dial with the Luminox Light Technology with the addition of Super-LumiNova on the indices, for maximum visibility. The Deep Dive series are water-resistant up to 500m and is equipped with a Helium Escape Valve for professional diving and saturation diving conditions complying with ISO 6425. To meet these requirements, Luminox made the sapphire crystal to be 3mm thick (twice thicker than a watch rated to 200m). The case-back is also a 3mm piece of stainless steel. Steel deforms at 50 bar pressure, so the overall case construction has to be much more robust and rugged. The case is in a massive 316L stainless steel and is a hefty feel on the wrist. A uni-directional ratcheted bezel is fitted. The entire bezel can be locked with the patented Bezel Locking System (BLS) which is a lever hinged at the top of the massive crown. When pushed securely in, it locks the bezel, making it immovable in either direction. When released, the bezel operates like most dive bezels, allowing it to click anti-clockwise and not clockwise.
