SKINDIVER WT PROFESSIONAL OVERVIEW
SHOCK RESISTANCE A STEP AHEAD
The newly engineered HexapleX® watch case architecture brings enhanced shock-resistance via the use of “3D” rubber shock absorbers strategically placed in the front, back and side of the movement holder.
The movement is subsequently in a “floating” configuration and effectively shielded from big to micro impacts on the watch case.
The result is the most impact resistant and accurate* Skindiver tool-watch Wolbrook has ever manufactured.
*micro-impacts are responsible for loss of accuracy overtime.

SKINDIVER WT PROFESSIONAL OVERVIEW
HESALITE GLASS: THE PRO’S CHOICE
From the 1960s and earlier, armed forces around the world along with NASA issued wrist-watches secured with Hesalite glasses to service men, pilots and astronauts. Why? Hesalite offers high transparency, strong impact resistance and do not shatter like glass or sapphire would.To this day, on the field, in a cockpit, or even in space, the possibility of having tiny bits of glass floating around or having the face of the watch exposed to the elements is considered an unnecessary risk and a direct threat to mission success.
TIME ZONES
TRACKING FUNCTION
On the bezel, the “+” and “-” in front of the cities allow you to define if these cities are before or after Greenwich, and if you need to read a time difference clockwise or anti-clockwise. Between “Greenwich” and “+Tokyo”, you have a time difference of +9 hours and between “Greenwich” and “-Denver” you have a time difference of -7 hours.
Let’s say you are in Sebring, Florida, USA and you want the time in Le Mans, France.
1. Sebring follows the Eastern Time Zone / UTC-05:00 (defined by “-New York” on the bezel), then you need to rotate the bezel and put "-New York" on the hour marker just passed by the hour hand. If it's 12:30 in Sebring. Then you place "-New York" on the 12:00 marker.
2. Le Mans follows Paris time zone / UTC+01:00. Paris is a forward time zone (there is a little “+” in front), you read the bezel clockwise and you see that it indicates 18:00. So, it's 18:30 in Paris and Le Mans.
