The Steinhart Ocean 1 Premium Blue Ceramic - Limited is made exclusively for Gnomon Watches and is an addition to the popular Ocean 1 Premium collection. The Ocean 1 Premium Blue Ceramic will be made in a limited production.

The Steinhart Ocean 1 Premium Blue Ceramic is made to the highest of Swiss standard. The case of the Steinhart Ocean 1 is made from 316L stainless steel like the other Ocean 1 Premium collection, features a satin brushed finish on the top of the lugs and polished sides of the case. The 42mm case has a 49mm lug-to-lug dimensions making this quite comfortable on most wrist sizes.

If you are in the market for a Steinhart Ocean 1 but insist only an ETA2824-2, this will be it! The Steinhart Ocean 1 Premium Blue Ceramic - Limited is powered by ETA's automatic caliber, ETA2824-2, operating at 28,800 BPH (4 Hertz) with hacking and hand winding capabilities. It has 25 jewels with a power reserve of 42 hours. And of Elaboré grade decorated by a custom golden Steinhart rotor.

The bezel on the Ocean is quite a stunner. The Ocean 1 Premium Blue Ceramic lends its design from the Ocean Premium collection. What this means is that the numbers and markers are all engraved to give it depth. The cavities are then filled in white enamel to match the theme with a luminous pip at the 12 o'clock position. The engraved bezel makes the numbers and markers visible under all lighting conditions.  The knurling on the side of the bezel is deep and clean. This helps in getting a good grip on the bezel for easy bezel operation. The 120 clicks bezel clicks positively into position.

The dial on the Ocean 1 Premium Blue Ceramic is a first for Steinhart and where it really stands out. The dial is a radiating blue with tonality effect. Darkening as you go from the apex towards the edge of the dial. The dial markers are also applied with matching white gold surround. SuperLuminova luminous is applied to the markers, minute, hour and second hands.

The Steinhart signed screw-down crown is located at 3 O'clock and is good for a water resistant rating of 300m. The Ocean 1 Premium comes with a sapphire crystal with inner anti-reflective coating for added clarity under different lighting conditions.

Again like the Ocean Premium collection, the Ocean 1 Premium Ceramic has a display back for owners to view the Steinhart ETA2824-2 movement with custom Steinhart gold rotor.

The Steinhart Ocean 1 Premium Blue Ceramic - Limited comes with a matching satin brushed stainless steel bracelet with screw links and fliplock. The bracelet tapers from 22mm to 18mm for that added refinement and elegance.

Overall, the Steinhart Ocean 1 Premium Blue Ceramic - Limited is quite a unique watch on its own merits. Like every Steinhart x Gnomon collaboration, this will definitely end up in the hall of fame. For those who have always wanted a Steinhart Ocean with an ETA2824-2 movement, this is probably the one to go for. For the price, you get a Swiss Made watch with an ETA2824-2 movement, a full 316L stainless steel 300m diver watch with SEL bracelet and an overall well finished sturdy watch. This was before not achievable until Steinhart arrived and also probably the reason why Steinhart has quite a huge following although only been around for only 15 years.
