Spinnaker Fleuss 40 Automatic SP-5133-88 – Fern Grey: a limited edition paying tribute to Henry Fleuss

The Fleuss 40 Automatic 145th Limited Edition, reference SP-5133-88, celebrates a major historical breakthrough in the field of scuba diving. This watch pays tribute to the 145th anniversary of the pioneering test of the oxygen rebreather carried out by Henry Fleuss in 1878. This model combines vintage design, modern performance and the legacy of an innovation that revolutionised scuba diving.

A reliable calibre: Seiko NH35

Like the brand’s most robust models, this limited edition is equipped with the Japanese Seiko NH35 automatic movement. This renowned calibre guarantees a 41-hour power reserve and a three-hand display with date, ensuring precision and reliability for everyday use.

A compact design and a unique dial

Its 40 mm round stainless steel case offers a versatile and comfortable fit. The “Fern Grey” dial – a subtle blend of grey and green inspired by nature – gives this model an elegant and understated aesthetic. The luminescent hands and hour markers ensure excellent readability, even in low-light conditions.

A confident vintage style

The inner rotating bezel, controlled by a second crown, is reminiscent of classic diving watches whilst allowing the elapsed time to be measured. This feature enhances the watch’s retro appeal whilst offering a useful function for diving enthusiasts.

Domed, anti-reflective sapphire crystal

For optimal clarity, the watch is protected by a domed sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating. This type of crystal is highly scratch-resistant and improves readability, even in bright light.

Two straps for two uses

The Fleuss 40 comes with two interchangeable straps: a stainless steel strap with a brushed and polished finish for a refined style, and a comfortable, durable khaki silicone strap, ideal for sports or water activities.
