The Edox WRC X-treme Pilot Limited Edition was designed with the drivers in mind. The pushpieces and crown are easily operable with gloved hands. Coated with a black PVD layer, the stainless steel casing protects the timepiece from scuffs and scratches.

The 45mm diameter face of the X-treme Pilot boasts sportiness while the rubber strap itself gives off cues of its motorsports heritage through tire-like tread marks. The white hands on black carbon dials also ensure legibility throughout its usage.

Alas, as beautiful as this spectacular watch is, the Edox WRC X-treme Pilot is built with a Swiss Quartz Chronograph known internally as the EDOX 107 which in turn was based on the Ronda 5021D. The word ‘quartz’ made you flinch a little didn’t it?

Somehow not being a full mechanical watch makes the Edox WRC X-treme Pilot lose part of its luster as a luxury timepiece but I assure you that a Swiss quartz based movement is as good as any Swiss mechanical movement.

If you don’t mind quartz, head on over to Watatime and pick up your Edox WRC X-treme Pilot today. Priced at RM8330, a white dial version of the WRC X-treme Pilot is also available.

The unorthodox black casing is due to DLC (Diamond-like Carbon) coating, in place of the usual stainless steel case. Paired with the Tritium-filled micro gas tubes and black rubber straps, the Ball Engineer Master II Diver TMT exudes professionalism and style.

The bi-directional screw-down crown ensures that the bezel will not move underwater, providing you with an accurate estimate of your dive time. Paired with a Ball calibre 9018 based on the ETA 2892-A2, this watch has a power reserve of up to 42 hours to ensure your timepiece stays on time even when stored a way.

This special edition luxury timepiece comes with a built-in mechanical thermometer which allows you to measure environmental temperatures ranging from –30 to 110°F (-35 to 45°C) with a precision of 3%. At least that’s what the Ball online catalog says. From what I read in forums, it seems that you would have to take the timepiece off your wrist for a more accurate reading which would only be necessary if your dive computer malfunctioned!

The last I checked at Zurich Timepieces, The Gardens, this model retailed at whopping RM12k+ but if you think that’s too much to pay for a thermometer you won’t use, check out the Ball Engineer Master II Diver GMT instead. The Ball Engineer Master II Diver TMT also comes without the DLC coating in a stainless steel case.
