Description from Lothar, the creator of these 2 impressive watches:

The watch is, except the clockwork and the pointers handmade by me.
The caliber is a swiss ETA 2824 automatic.
I have made the case the bottom and the lunette from high-grade steel that never can oxidize and it is completly antimagnetic.
The buttom is 4mm thick.

The prototype of this watch was tested in a pressure chamber till 200bar = 2000m = 6562feet.
The saphirglass is especially made for this watch.
The saphirglass is 5mm thick und is sealed with selfmade teflon seals.
The bezel hold the glass on the place because there is a step in the saphirglass.
