Ressence Type 5 - the World-Proof Divers’ Watch
By SENATUS Editor | 10 December 2022

Ressence Type 5 is positioning itself as the "World-Proof Divers’ Watch"

The TYPE 5 eliminates visual complexities and superfluous elements to create a timeless diving watch that is functional and inspires the imagination

To achieve the best-ever readability underwater, the complete ROCS 5 module is immersed in 3.57 ml of oil. The use of oil cancels out what is known as Total Internal Reflection. Typically, under water, a traditional diver’s watch needs to be viewed straight on in order to be read properly - otherwise refraction turns the glass into a mirror. The use of oil inside the TYPE 5 ensures complete legibility whatever the angle of view. A first for a mechanical watch.

Wearable every day, both in and out of the water, it meets the requirements of ISO 6425 and is thus able to withstand extreme conditions, and dive down with you to 100 meters.

To ensure maximum water resistance, a new case-back has been specially developed for the TYPE 5. Dubbed the Ressence Compression Lock System, or RCLS, it has a system for the locking and compression of the gasket, with two positions, ‘lock’ and ‘set’.

Made entirely out Grade 5 Titanium, it is considerably lighter than any traditional diver’s watch - a mere 87grams - and extremely comfortable to wear. Its seamlessly integrated unidirectional bezel allows you to track your immersion time, while completing the watch’s instantly recognizable look.
