These new models have a rather distinctive appearance with their black dials and green lumibrite detailing. Each model’s hands and hour markers are coated with this statement green lumibrite to give these models a unique look and ensure that the dial can be easily read in the dark and mysterious nighttime seas. Each model is equipped with a sapphire glass lens to provide a good level of durability. The three watches are designed entirely in shades of black and green for a bold and eye-catching look.
