RJ-ROMAIN JEROME<br />
THE DEEP BLUE OCTOPUS<br />
Undeniably the most steampunk-like sea<br />
animal, RJ-Romain Jerome is dedicating<br />
its latest collection to the octopus, a<br />
fascinating marine creature from the<br />
collective imagination.<br />
With this 25-piece limited edition, the<br />
Swiss watchmaking Maison introduces<br />
a truly marine and highly crafted<br />
timepiece, the Deep Blue Octopus,<br />
incorporating all characteristics and<br />
aesthetical features of the animal with a<br />
meticulous care devoted to each detail<br />
The timepiece has also been built<br />
around the number eight to recall the<br />
8 legs of the Octopus: there are 8 head<br />
screws on the case, 8 screws holding<br />
the case back as well as 8 rivets on<br />
each crown. And finally, the Deep Blue<br />
Octopus is water resistant down to 888<br />
feet to explore the seabed. To finish<br />
off this Octopus infused timepiece, the<br />
bezel is a reminder that this collection<br />
rightly belongs to RJ’s SEA universe.<br />
The Hour Glass is the exclusive retailer<br />
of RJ-Romain Jerome in Singapore.<br />
