PONTOS S DIVER 42 mm

LIDIJA LIJIC X PONTOS S DIVER

Maurice Lacroix presents a new version of the PONTOS S Diver.

The PONTOS S Diver is back, tested under the most extreme conditions. The model is the result of teamwork, inspired by Lidija's sporting expertise. The perfect companion – not only for underwater exploration, but also for life in the city.

During the development phase, Lidija Lijic's expertise was incorporated. She is a member of the ML crew, a world champion, and the current freediving record holder with a submerged dive time of 5 minutes and 43 seconds. Lidija lives in a world of extremes, exploring the limits of human performance. Therefore, she was the perfect person to put the new model through its paces.

The watch, with a 42 mm case, is available in stainless steel or, for the first time, bronze. The hour and minute hands are faceted and filled with Super-LumiNova®. The minute hand also features a colored border. The hours are indicated by applied indexes, which are also coated with luminous material. Subtle changes to the original dial design include sharper and more prominent hour markers. The date display also features a raised frame, setting it apart from the rest of the dial. Every detail has been optimized to ensure good legibility.

A special crown at 2 o'clock allows the wearer to adjust the internal rotating bezel. It features a counting scale that allows the wearer to measure time spent underwater. The watch also features a central seconds hand and a date display at 6 o'clock. A second crown at 3 o'clock allows the wearer to adjust the various displays and wind the movement.

This latest PONTOS S Diver is available in several versions. The steel models offer a choice of a black grained or white lacquered dial. The bronze model, limited to just 500 pieces, features a magnificent blue grained dial. The aforementioned crown at 2 o'clock is complemented by a color-coordinated ring, ensuring it remains visible even underwater.

At the heart of the PONTOS S Diver is the automatic caliber ML115. The bronze version comes with two straps: one in dark blue vintage leather with the company's M logo, and one in dark blue rubber embossed with "Maurice Lacroix."

At launch, the steel models will be delivered with three color-coordinated straps: a fabric strap with the M logo and two rubber straps with the Maurice Lacroix logo in relief. The watch is equipped with the brand's strap-changing system, allowing for quick, tool-free strap changes.
