Earlier this year at the Couture Show in Las Vegas, i got a sneak look at the newest Oceanus watches that Casio America, Inc. is now releasing. In fact, there are four new Oceanus watches being unveiled — all of which boast a spiral-cut sapphire bezel that offers a real wow factor. One of the watches also represents the brand’s ongoing efforts to achieve thinness. The OCWS6000SW2A watch is a limited-production model that ow holds the title of the thinnest watch in the Casio and Oceanus collection, measuring a mere 9.2 mm in thickness. Each of the 300 pieces of this watch has been meticulously crafted by hand at Casio’s Yamagata factory in Japan, emphasizing the brand’s commitment to quality.

As to the spiral-cut sapphire crystal bezel: the undersides of the bezel are skillfully colored through vapor deposition, creating a striking blue gradient that symbolizes the dynamism of waves. The dial’s reflective attribute, also achieved through vapor deposition, cleverly conceals the solar charging panel. The use of titanium for the band, buckle, and case further enhances the timepiece’s elegance, with a titanium carbide treatment capturing the essence of the brand.
