From Dievas yesterday:
Today we launch our latest model, the Dievas Voyageur GMT.
Tailor made for professional pilots is the new dual time zone Voyageur GMT by Dievas Watch Company. Bold and clear being the apparent direction taken up by the designers, it was evident from the very beginning what was to be expected of this project. Starting from afresh, we designated a 3-piece case for customization options and ease of serviceability with a good 45mm size for function. The case is CNC-ed in Germany, entirely out of Grade A 316L Stainless Steel. Each case is further refined by hand to attain that brilliance and sharpness usually associated with only the best. Then the case is put through another QC check to eradicate the smallest of imperfections before going for the Dievas 6Steel treatment.
Dievas 6Steel is a propriety case hardening process developed by Dievas Watch Company in collaboration with our specialized high tech metallurgy partner. Firstly, our premium 316L CNC watch case is heated in a mixture of carbon gases at precised low temperature to allow diffusion of atoms. This intricate process is duplicated repeatedly over long hours to superimpose supersaturation and concentration of carbon. The sudden immense energy from carbon atoms accumulation results in 30µm layered hardening of the case to 1300 Hv on the Vickers scale(6 times the orignal hardness of normal stainless steel). The toughened case is then put through a vacuum chamber for plasma coating to elevate the corrosion resistance, particularly sea water and sweat immunity. This multi layering process makes the 6Steel case an ideal candidate for use in sports and diving watches.
The following are the official PRESS RELEASES for the Voyageur GMT and their new 6Steel:
