Swiss watchmaker Ikepod has released another vintage Newson model called the 'Seaslug,' which, just like the previously released Newson's, pays homage to the label's former head designer, Marc Newson. The new Seaslug delivers a classic dive watch design while introducing a contemporary twist that adheres to the brand's own idiosyncratic design codes.
To start, the new timepiece is a COSC-certified dive watch, meaning it has been vetted for its accuracy and precision by the Contrôle Officiel Suisse des Chronomètres. As for the piece itself, it features a 39mm stainless steel case and an ETA 2893-2 automatic movement that delivers a 24-hour power reserve.
For those interested, the new Seaslug dive watch is currently available to purchase on Ikepod's website.
