an unusual dark green colour which goes well with the bronze colour of the
case. Protected by a sapphire crystal, the dial has highly luminous skeleton

ELEMENTARY RULES FOR DIVING WHILE ENSURING SAFETY
Diving will be a pleasure so long as the precautionary rules are correctly
observed. However, some risks are inherent in this activity. All diving must be
preceded by taking part in a course at an accredited diving school and
obtaining a recognised diving certificate.
Also, before diving, remember all the essential instructions for diving in
accordance with the internationally recognised standards and procedures,
and do not forget to carry out all the safety checks.
NOTE: It is recommended to expose the watch to the light before carrying out
a dive to ensure the visibility of the dial and hands.

locked by the device protecting the winding crown, which protects it from shocks
and accidental breakage and helps ensure the water-resistance of the case. The
moving lever is mounted in the bridge fixed to the case, which is engraved with the
letters REG. and T.M. (Registered trademark). The lever is terminated by a small
rotating cushion-like component, which avoids wear at the end of the lever in
contact with the crown, allowing the most effective setting of the axial pressure
between the two parts. The crystal is of sapphire, obtained from corundum, a very
hard material (second only to diamond), free of impurities, transparent, abrasion
resistant, and with anti-reflective treatment.
The back is fixed to the caseband by a ring of titanium, a metal chosen for its hypo-
allergenic qualities, and has a sapphire crystal window, enabling the mechanism
and the haute horlogerie finish to be admired. On the back are engraved the case
number, the individual sequential identification number with the number of the
edition, the material and the maximum depth of use. The water-resistance of your
watch is guaranteed to a pressure of 30 bar, which correspond to the hydrostatic
pressure exerted by a column of water on 1 square centimetre at a depth of 300
metres under normal conditions. In these circumstances your watch is therefore
water-resistant to a depth of about 300 metres.

HE UNIDIRECTIONAL ROTATING BEZEL
The bezel is of the unidirectional type, rotating only anti-clockwise. It has a
scale divided into 60ths, graduated in single minutes for the first 15 minutes
and then every 5 minutes. The movement of the bezel when it is being set is
very distinctive. It is of radial design, using a metal ring-shaped element, which
significantly improves the precision of the click and ensures that the bezel has
the greatest possible resistance to wear and to high temperatures. Patent filed
for this new system of operation.

HE DIAL
The dial follows the characteristic appearance of the Luminor Submersible,
