With the Dual Time, they went from 200m to 500m WR, with a corresponding increase in case thickness - the original wore much better. If they do it with the Waterman, I’ll be less likely to buy one, which is a shame, as I love my stainless Waterman and a blue dialled bronze version could be nice.
From Forasec today:
"We love that this 42mm model returns in bronze! The Waterman is one of those watches that fits every occasion as it is moderately sized, sporty, classy and with some retro feel.
The Moana Pacific Waterman Bronze combines a retro look with very modern specifications and technical abilities. Its 500m WR (used to be 200m) is enough for 99% of the population. Its Swiss made Sellita SW200-1 automatic movement guarantees longevity and durability. If you are not familiar with this movement: it is very similar to the ETA 2824 and used by brands like Sinn, Eterna, Baume & Mercier, Oris, Bell & Ross and many others.
It has a ceramic, lumed bezel, a sandwich dial (also with lots of lume), a branded crown and comes with two straps: leather and tropical rubber.
