Super Compressor Styling with Internal Rotating Bezel

The Seascape 200M is the result of combining the famous Marnaut design language and character with a super compressor style diving watch. A compressor styled diver is recognized by it’s iconic twin crowns, one for setting the time and one for setting the inner bezel.

The Seascape 200M features a bezel, which is located inside the watch, operated by turning the top crown.

When the top crown is screwed down, it’s impossible to accidentally adjust the bezel of the Seascape 200M, which makes this dive watch design one of the safest
