The Denise Date a flagship design Even though the new Denise Date is more functionally complex, its appearance is more harmonious than previous iterations in the collection. It's designed to be calm to the eyes yet pack maximum utility, a big-eye calendar display, power-reserve indicator, timing bezel, compass feature, 200 meter water resistance and a precision certified automatic movement. I bet you couldn™t tell all that by giving it a quick look. The Calendar-Eye, A Centerpiece Incorporated is a calendar function for the first time in a Denise watch which serves as a centerpiece of the dial. The calendar-eye is slightly submerged to create a feel of depth and the matte surface inside contrast against the otherwise lacquered dial. The Watch Face The hands displaying hours and minutes are skeletonized, creating an airy and calm environment inside the watch face. In order to maximize legibility however, the hands have been bead-blasted, resulting in a surface that catches light from all angles. The lume inside the tips of the hands is generously applied to ensure visibility well into the night, in fact, 5x longer than those of previous Denise models. Maximum Utility, Minimum Distractions A power-reserve indicator is seamlessly incorporated with the center stem and is subtly viewed around the calendar. In order to not be mistaken by the hour-hand, the pointer has been colored red with a polished frame. The scratch-proof ceramic bezel features timing capabilities as well as a compass function that blends perfectly with the overall design when you're not looking for it. The Bracelets Solid bead-blasted bracelet with screw attached links or Italian rubber, both with a completely new micro-adjustable diving clasp. You can™t go wrong with either choice. Testing-Testing The Denise is the most durable and versatile watch collection we™ve ever made and we make sure each timepiece is chock resistant, waterproof and precision certified to the highest standard.

It never needs recalibrating and will be correct 100% of the time, as long as you have set the watch's time accurately. The reading of the compass is divided in two segments, judging on where you are located, on the Northern or Southern hemisphere and what time of day it is. Note that we will start with the PM compass procedure. Northern Hemisphere - PM time (12-24h) Click to show/minimize 1. Take of your watch and lay it flat in your hands. Turn your whole body so that the hour hand of the watch points towards the sun. - Point the hour hand towards the sun 2. While in this position, turn the bezel so the orange pointer precisely bisect the area between 12 o™clock and the hour hand, marking the center between these points. - Bisect the area between 12h and the hour hand using the bezels arrow pointer. 3. The œN will now point towards North During daylight savings time (winter time), use 1 o™clock instead of 12™ when bisecting the area between it and the hour hand. AM time (00-12h) During AM time the procedure is the same, just bisect the area on the opposite side of 12h (between the hour hand and 12 o™clock). Southern Hemisphere - PM time (12-24h) Click to show/minimize 1. Take of your watch and lay it flat in your hands. Turn your whole body so that the hour hand of the watch points towards the sun. - Point the hour hand towards the sun 2.
