Introducing the Limited Edition Steel Sunray Black TORSK-DIVER

With a limited quantity of 423 pieces in a surgical grade brushed steel case, each timepiece will be individually numbered as No. xxx / 423 (to pay homage to the SS-423 submarine, also known as the USS-Torsk).

The TORSK-DIVER is named after the USS Torsk submarine, currently located in the Baltimore Inner Harbor.  The USS Torsk was one of ten Tench-class submarines to see service during World War II and happened to sink the last enemy ship in 1945.  It has since been decommissioned and is currently being used as a museum ship, managed by the Historic Ships in Baltimore. 

A portion of net profits, from each timepiece sold, will go to the Historic Ships in Baltimore to support the ongoing maintenance and management of the USS TORSK Submarine.

Water Resistance: 

The TORSK-DIVER is tested and rated at 30 ATM / 300m of water resistance. Don't let the looks fool you - the TORSK-DIVER can handle your water adventures. Take it with you when you shower, swim, dive, or surf.  The TORSK-DIVER is built like a Submarine... more specifically, like the USS-TORSK. 

Movement:

The automatic Miyota 9015 by Citizen was our number one choice for the TORSK-DIVER. Many reviews have compared it to the Swiss ETA movements in terms of timekeeping and performance without the high price tag. Having used it for our first model, we were extremely pleased with the accuracy and reliability.  As an improvement to an already incredible movement, we will also regulate the movement in 4 positions. 

The 9015 includes a date window, 48 hour power reserve, and beats at 28,800 VPH (Vibrations per Hour), resulting in a very smooth sweep of the second hand. It is also shock resistant and includes a hacking function, making it one of the best values on the market. Best of all - no battery needed. 

Case Material:

Alongside the world’s best watch manufacturers, the Steel TORSK uses a surgical grade brushed steel that is resistant to both pitting and corrosion.

Zoe L. ★★★★★

Got the serial number engraved on the back—423 pieces total—and the sunray dial catches light in a way that shifts from charcoal to near-black depending on the angle. The brushed steel case feels solid on the wrist without being bulky, and I've already gotten two compliments from strangers.

Joshua P. ★★★★★

The brushed steel case has this lovely weight to it, and the sunray black dial catches light in a way that shifts from charcoal to near-mirror depending on the angle. Mine's numbered within the 423-piece run, and the finishing on the caseback is a cut above what I expected at this price point.

Daniel ★★★★★

The serial number on mine matches the caseback engraving, and the 423-piece run makes it feel like a proper collector’s piece. The brushed steel has a subtle grain that catches light differently on the wrist, and the sunray dial really does shift from near-black to charcoal depending on the angle.
