Just when you thought Swatch’s Bioceramic Scuba Fifty Fathoms collection couldn’t get more unexpected, here comes the Pink Ocean. Inspired by nature’s prettiest hues—think pink lakes, beaches, and bays—it’s proof that even serious diving watches can have a sense of style.
Crafted from Swatch’s patented Bioceramic, a mix of two-thirds ceramic and one-third biosourced material (from castor oil, no less), the watch is durable, scratch-resistant, and boasts a silky matte finish. The bright pink color isn’t just a fashion statement; it pays homage to the Ceratodoris rosacea nudibranch, a stunning sea slug known for its vibrant pink appearance. If your watch doesn’t reference a flamboyant mollusk, what are you even doing?
Under the hood, it runs on the Swiss-made SISTEM51 mechanical movement, a marvel with just 51 parts, a 90-hour power reserve, and full anti-magnetic properties thanks to a Nivachron hairspring. As with the rest of the collection, the movement is visible through a sapphire glass case back, complete with a digital print of pink waters and the Ceratodoris rosacea.
