[Live Photos] Oceanus OCW-P1000-1A — A compass that travels through the ocean

In the elegant, stylish impression of OCEANUS, you may know the series called “CACHALOT (Casillo)” that emits extraordinary color. The word “schapel whale” in French means “chascaro”, and it is said to be the strongest marine organism from its size and the world’s best diving ability. CACHALOT derived from the name of such sperm whale, the first aircraft was born in 2008. Since then, bold coloring and a powerful silhouette exist as distinctive models.

The current CACHALOT was launched in 2015, “ OCW-P1000″. Standard radio wave reception function of 6 stations in the world <multi band 6>, stable driving various functions with heavy load <tough solar>, high durability to shock <hybrid mount structure>, when needle misalignment occurs The clock’s reliability is further improved with four advanced functions, such as <hand position automatic correction function> to be corrected <Tough Movement>, and <Smart access> that can be set in 29 cities in the world with easy crown operation Equipped with basic functions of OCEANUS.
On top of that, the only thing that is equipped only with this CACHALOT is the “azimuth measurement function” that can check the direction of the north and the desired direction. The operation method is very easy. Hold the 12 o’clock position horizontally toward the direction you want to measure, push the 2 o’clock button once to point the second hand to the north (to re-measure, press the 2 o’clock button again). When the 2 o’clock position button is turned further, the inner ring on the outside of the dial interlocks. The azimuth can be easily stored by aligning the adduction ring with the north azimuth indicated by the second hand.

Even if you do not see the destination by this, you can use it to get closer to the destination by setting the direction of the destination on the map at 12 o’clock. It’s dangerous to open the map app on your phone and walk while watching it, and it’s not smarter than anything else. It’s as beautiful and simple as it is to handle the secret tools that appear in spy movies. That is the biggest concept of this CACHALOT.

Like the name of CACHALOT, its marine taste design, which seems to be OCEANUS with high affinity to the sea, makes a distinction from other series. It looks like a gadget like a ship or yacht instrument, creating a sporty appearance, and shows the attitude in OCEANUS watch making that you will never forget adventure and playfulness. It is likely that it is an add-on ring with an orientation. We change angle every 30 degrees, and there is transparent multilayer film by sputtering technology there, and we realize beautiful blue by using wavelength of light. The second hand, which also serves to indicate the direction, uses a red color that can be seen at a glance, and as with the inner ring, the visibility is enhanced.
