Case and Dial Design
The case of the Pelagos is constructed from titanium and measures 42mm in diameter. It is equipped with a helium escape valve and is rated for a depth of 500 meters. The aesthetic is defined by a matte blue dial that incorporates high-legibility square markers, an outer minute track, and the brand’s characteristic 'snowflake' handset.
The dial is paired with a unidirectional rotating bezel featuring a ceramic insert. The design prioritizes visual clarity in low-light or underwater conditions, ensuring information can be read quickly without distraction.
