Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Ocean Plastic Edition Watch is Made From Recycled Plastic

— June 17, 2021 — Eco
The MVMT Minimal Sport got an eco-friendly makeover in the form of the Ocean Plastic Edition Watch. The latest timepiece from the fashion accessory brand makes use of Matte Blue Tide Ocean Material made from reclaimed and recycled ocean plastic. Completing the sustainable feel, the Ocean Plastic Edition Watch features a solar panel under the dial which charges the watch's battery.

The Ocean Plastic Edition Watch has an ocean-inspired design that manifests through its wavy patterning and blue-centered color scheme. The dive watch has a 10 ATM water resistance so it can be worn while engaging in casual water activities like snorkeling or surfing. A portion of the proceeds from the limited-run timepiece supports the Surfrider Foundation, an ocean conservation non-profit organization. The Ocean Plastic Edition Watch launched on June 3rd, 2021, and is available on the MVMT site while quantities last.
