New Watch for Professional Explorers

The redesigned watch model sports a bi-directional rotating bezel with 24-hour graduation. The Kobold specialists based the bezel's minute-graduated ratcheting system upon three ceramic ball bearings that is more effective than a common system applying click-springs. It makes the bezel well protected from dirt and freezing moisture that could lock it up.The Polar Surveyor is presented on a corresponding Soarway bracelet provided with a patented screw-locked system. The timepiece comes in a wooden Kobold's collector's box that offers enough room for two more watches. The set also comprises a professional-grade canvas strap and two screwdrivers to change bands. Sir Ranulth Fiennes, a 63-year old British explorer, has been Kobold's brand-ambassador since 1999, the year of the company's inception. The explorer has worn the Polar surveyor during every of his exploits. The Polar Surveyor's caliber is responsible for the regular timing and chronograph functions and displaying time for a second time zone, a function used by explorers for keeping in touch with the rest of the world.Kobold Polar Surveyor Chronograph features the brand's signature Soarway case crafted from stainless steel.
