Introducing our first GMT model, the Oceanguard! The Oceanguard features a dual timezone complication which uses a fourth hand to keep track of two time zones at once making it the perfect travel companion! Its custom 24hr bezel insert, available in three different colorways, features hand-drawn, vintage-styled font that captures the feeling of air travel from the 1950s.
Originally created as a useful tool for pilots, the GMT’s ability to track local and home time has made it an essential item for ships’ captains, navigators, and world travelers for decades. With the Oceanguard, we set out to capture that utilitarian and adventure-seeking spirit from whence all GMT watches were born. But we took it even further! In addition to a four-hand calibre with custom red and black roulette date wheel and hand-drawn, serif font, the Oceanguard features a custom friction-fit bezel affording a smooth bi-directional rotation; a color palette of vintage-inspired tones and notes; and an all-brushed 5-link steel bracelet.
Elements such as the date wheel’s highly desirable “flat three” and “open six and nine” numerals, as well as custom bracelet with on-the-fly microadjustment, make the Oceanguard truly one of a kind!
Currently, only 25 pieces have been produced. More may be made depending on interest and inventory, but one thing is for certain, this is one watch you don’t want to miss out on! Especially when you can have it right now?! That’s right, ALL Oceanguard watches are READY-TO-SHIP! Secure yours, before it’s too late!
It is our absolute pleasure to introduce you to the newest additions to the Imperial Watch Co. lineup!
