Hands-On: RZE Resolute SuperCompressor 2022 – Sky Blue

RZE introduced the Resolute SuperCompressor, an ultra-durable and lightweight titanium timekeeper with a classic compressor design with an accurate high-beat movement. The water-resistant supercompressor construction grants you a fixed and safe bezel during your dives and water adventures. The bezel lies on the inner side of the case, controlled by the distinctive second crown at 2 o’clock, so it can’t be accidentally turned by solely touching the watch.

Dial surface vivid like an ocean with distinctive orange details of the RZE Resolute SuperCompressor 2022 – Sky Blue

The new Resolute SuperCompressor was designed to be your daily beater dive watch and like the RZE Explorer Field Watch it features the an ultra-durable and lightweight titanium watch case. It is coated with RZE’s UltraHex™️ technology, a special titanium-coating that increases the hardness of the surface of ~1200Hv (~8x harder than 316L Stainless Steel). It prevents scratches from regular wear, so you don’t need to have any worries about bumps and scratches on your watch when you’re getting busy on your adventures anymore.

RZE Resolute SC 2022 Sky Blue on the wrist

With a standard size of 40mm the SuperCompressor wears well and balanced on the wrist, but it feels almost like a 38-39 mm watch compared to other divers. This is due to the relatively small dial, which makes spaces for the inner bezel, yet provides good readability. The extremely light solid Titanium makes it the perfect summer watch, when heavy watches are rather disturbing.

The special dial finishing creates a vivid dial surface, remembering on the wavy surface of the blue ocean. Orange details on 3-, 6-, 9- and 12 O’clock, as well as on the top marker of the inner bezel and the minute hand give great contrast to the blue dial. The watch case has a nice geometric appearance due to many different angles and edges.

Wearing the new RZE Resolute SuperCompressor 2022 – Sky Blue (wrist circumference: 18cm / 7″)

The treatment of 10-12 of anti-reflective coatings on the underside of the sapphire crystal make reflections history. This cuts down shiny reflections significantly and makes the crystal almost disappear when viewed at certain angles and light conditions, guaranteeing perfect readability, even in the worst conditions.

Slim profile makes the watch wear rather like a 38-39 mm watch

Below the solid titanium screw-down case back with VITON® gasket ticks a slim Miyota 90S5 automatic movement. It is a well known and well used automatic watch movement, easy to service, reliable and last but not least very precise in its price class. The watch has a weight of only 100 grams and 120 grams with bracelet.
